Popis: Over the temperature range from 303 to 333 K, the enthalpy of micelle formation by 1-methyl-4-n-dodecylpyridinium iodide in aqueous solution is exothermic, characterised by an isobaric heat capacity of micelle formation equal to -439 +/- 10 J K-1 mol(-1). At 303 K, the critical micellar concentration (2.8 x 10(-3) mol dm(-3)) increases when urea, 4 mol kg(-1) and X mol kg(-1) is added. Surprisingly, the isobaric heat capacity of micelle formation is unaffected although micelle formation is slightly less exothermic compared to that recorded for aqueous solutions.
