My book says that the CCP can be increased by:
1. Change of a surfactant to one with a longer hydrocarbon chain
2. Change of a surfactant to one with a branched hydrocarbon chain
3. Use of surfactants with two hydrocarbon chains ("gemini" surfactants)
4. Addition of a long-chain alcohol, amine or other hydrophobic amphiphilic molecule
5. Addition of a hydrophobic non-ionic surfactant
6. Addition of a small abount of surfactant with opposite charge
7. Addition of salt
The formula is CCP = V/(a*l). This has led me to believe that there is a mistake in my book, and that these 7 rules say how to decrease the CCP. Am I right?
