“…A comparison of the computed results with the analytical ones, [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] known in the limiting cases from solutions of the linearized and nonlinearized differential Becker-Döring kinetic equation, demonstrates quantitative agreement at higher concentrations of the surfactant above the critical micellar concentration. Surprisingly, there is also qualitative agreement with the formulas [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] even at premicellar states of surfactant solutions, where the analytical theory cannot formally be applied. Unfortunately, we do not know the direct experimental or numerical simulation results on the kinetics of cylindrical micelles to compare with the predictions obtained from our work, but we are planning to perform such simulations in the near future.…”
