Markov chain model of mixed surfactant systems

A new model of mixed surfactant systems have been developed in the work presented. It includes two parameters only connected directly with the Gibbs free energy of the surfactant aggregation. They can be determined using both the aggregation equilibrium constant values or the phase composition data. It has been shown also the relation between these new parameters and the same of the regular solution approximation and the alternative models. The possibility to describe the available experimental information about the micelle composition as a function of the singly dispersed surfactant mixture composition better than by the other models has been shown also.
