Aggregation number

Aggregation number

A description of the number of molecules present in a micelle once the critical micelle concentration has been reached. A typical experiment to determine the mean aggregation number would involve the use of a luminescent probe, quencher and a known concentration of surfactant. If the concentration of the quencher is varied, and the cmc of the surfactant known, the mean aggregation number can be calculated.
