Abstract: The structural properties of nonionic surfactant dodecyl-poly(ethylene oxide-23) ether (C12E23, commercial name Brij 35) in water and in various alcohol's from ethanol to 1-decanol are studied with the help of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) techniques. The results and some remarks concerning the shortcomings of the SAXS method are summarized.
