  The rate of micelle solubilization (SR) can be appraised following the
decrease of the radius of a macroscopic drop of oil in contact with a
surfactant solution [Todorov, 2002]. Alternatively, the time required for the
dissolution of a liquid dispersion can be used for this purpose. Here, the
decrease of the turbidity of a dodecane-in-water (d/w) nanoemulsion in 7.5 mM
sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) is studied at sodium chloride concentrations of
100, 300, 500, 700, 900, and 1000 mM NaCl. These salinities correspond to
non-aggregating (< 300), aggregation-promoted (500) and surfactant
precipitation regimes (> 700). It is found that SR is equal to 2.3 x 10^-11,
half the value observed in the absence of salt for a neat aqueous surfactant
solution above its critical micelle concentration (7.0 < cmc < 8.7 mM SDS
[Deodhar, 2020]).
