What is Kraft tempreature?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Kraft Temperature**: Kraft temperature is defined as the temperature above which micelle formation occurs in a solution. 2. **Understanding Micelles**: Micelles are aggregates formed by surfactant molecules in a solution. These surfactants have both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) parts. When the temperature reaches the Kraft temperature, these surfactant molecules start to aggregate to form micelles. ...
