Interfacial and aggregation behavior of aqueous mixtures of imidazolium based surface active ionic liquids and anionic surfactant sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate

- Mixed micelles of anionic surfactant and surface active ionic liquids investigated.
- The mixed systems exhibit superior surface activity and lower cac.
- Synergistic interactions have been observed.
- Micelles, vesicles or micelles/vesicles at different compositions are observed.
- Ag nanoparticles in SDBS-[C12mim][Cl] mixed system have been synthesized.
