The surface tension of mixed fluorocarbon (NF) and hydrocarbon (STS) surfactants was measured in 0.01 and 0.05 M sodium chloride solutions, and 2 kinds of mixed micelles were found to coexist in equilibrium. The micellar composition was determined from the surface tension data on NF-STS solutions above the critical micelle concentration (CMC). In the relation between the surface tension at the CMC and micellar composition, a plateau region was observed, and both ends of this region represent the mutual solubility of NF and STS in the mixed micelles. The CMC vs. monomeric composition curve breaks where 2 micellar
