Summary
The following paper reports the occurrence of interactions in nonionic polymer (hydroxyethylcellulose : HEC)/nonionic surfactant (polyethylene oxide nonyl phenyl ether) systems through light-scattering studies (LS). In a given composition range of the binary mixture H2O/surfactant, preferential solvation by surfactant micelles is observed. The variation of the preferential adsorption coefficient with surfactant concentration is governed by the size of the micelles.
