Abstract: An advanced method used to determine the counterion activity in micellar solution by ion-selective electrode is described, and a new equation dCcf/dCiT=-K is derived where Ccf denotes the concentration of unbound counterions, and CiT is the concentration of ionic surfactant. This equation is used to calculate the counterion binding degree(K) of micelles. K values of eight kinds of ionic micelles are investigated. They are in the range of 0. 6~0. 70.
