Micellar solution

Solution composed of micelles dispersed in a solvent

In colloid science, a micellar solution consists of a dispersion of micelles in a solvent. Micelles consist of aggregated amphiphiles, and in a micellar solution these are in equilibrium with free, unaggregated amphiphiles. Micellar solutions form when the concentration of amphiphile exceeds the critical micelle concentration (CMC) or critical aggregation concentration (CAC), and persist until the amphiphile concentration becomes sufficiently high to form a lyotropic liquid crystal phase.
