Packing Parameter

Packing Parameter is a dimensionless physicochemical quantity that characterizes the geometric arrangement of surfactant molecules in self-assembled structures by relating the volume of the hydrophobic chain, the critical length of the tail, and the equilibrium area per molecule at the interface.
