✦ Synopsis


SANS-measurements of dilute surfactant solutions containing rodlike micelles were performed under laminar and turbulent (drag-reduced) flow conditions in a pipe geometry. Experiments indicate that the increased local stresses in turbulent flow partially break up the micellar structure, leading to a broader length-distribution of the particles and a decrease of the average rod length.
