The addition of cationic surfactants to an aqueous solution of an anionic polymer, carboxymethylcellulose (carboxyMC), causes the spontaneous formation of aggregates in a certain range of concentrations. Here we studied two surfactants, dodecyl and hexadecyl trimethylammonium bromide (DTAB and CTAB, respectively). Using different techniques (light scattering, potentiometry, viscosimetry, and zetametry), we found that a simple lengthening of the surfactant tail length by four CH2 groups drastically changes the aggregate morphology, size, and charge. We explored in detail how the surfactant and polymer concentrations act on these systems.
