The surface activity of the mixed surfactants C12H25(OC2H4)(7)SO4Na-C12H25N(C2H4OH)(3)Cl (C(12)E(7)S-C(12)NEt(3)) and C8H17C6H4(OC2H4)(10)SO4Na(C-8 Phi E(10)S)-C(12)NEt(3) is much higher than those of C(12)E(7)S, C(12)NEt(3) and C-8 Phi E(10)S, respectively. With the mixing ratio approaching 1:1, the solubilization of hexanol by aqueous solutions of C(12)E(7)S-C(12)NEt(3) or C(12)NEt(3)-C-8 Phi E(10)S decreases, giving a V-shaped curve. The solubilization of polar compounds is directly proportional to the square of the amount of micellar charge. With the mixing ratio approaching 1:1, the solubilization of hexane increases, giving a ''arc'' shaped curve. The viscosity of aqueous solutions of C(12)E(7)S-C(12)NEt(3) or C-8 Phi E(10)S-C(12)NEt(3) increases with a mixing ratio approaching 1:1, giving an inverted-V-shaped curve.
