ABSTRACT

Surfactants on dissolving pure water at a certain concertation develop stable micelles. Micelles occur when the cohesive forces (CF) among their hydrophobic alkyl chain on developing hydrophobic-hydrophobic interactions and also the hydrophilic head on developing cohesion through water molecules attain critical stoichiometric ratios. Surfactant molecules when dispersed in less numbers are not in a position to develop micelles; this infers that adequate hydrophobic cohesion is missing at lower concentrations. Thus in micelles CFs as well as friction forces participate, which generate a definite magnitude of friccohesity. The dendrimers due to their hydrophobicity induce certain changes, which are measured with friccohesity for adequate elaboration. Emulsions differ from solutions with respect to developing localized ionic forces with structure breaking and making chemical activities, contrary to the Brownian motions and higher friccohesity in the case of emulsions. Fundamental studies to estimate their thermodynamic and kinetic stabilities could be made with their particles size, quantitative intrinsic viscosity and surface tension, wettability, and friccohesity.
