Abstract: The surface and micelle properties of C10H21N(CH3)3Br/C3F7CH2OH and C12H25N (CH3)3Br/C3F7CH2OH aqueous solutions are investigated by surface tension and electromorive force methods. The results show that the surface activity of solution is increased and the counterion binding degree of micelle is decreased when C3F7CH2OH is added into cationic surfactant aqueous solution. The latter differs from that of anionic surfactant/C3F7CH2OH systems, which should be due to the acidity of C3F7CH2OH.
