Morphology of polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) micelles in aqueous dimethyl sulfoxide solutions

A study of the structure of micelles of the surfactant polysorbate 80 in aqueous dimethyl sulfoxide solutions shows that the micelles change from core–shell cylinder micelles to core–shell discus micelles between concentrations of 20 and 30% dimethyl sulfoxide.
