Abstract
Recent developments in the computer simulation studies of the effects of counterions on the properties of ionic surfactant systems in contact with aqueous solution phase are discussed. The article deals with three types of systems: normal micelles, monolayers at the air/aqueous solution interface, and reverse micelles, i.e., water-in-oil microemulsions.
