The mixture of the cationic surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), and anionic surface-active ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazoliumdodecyl sulfate (bmimDS), has been studied as a function of the mole fraction of CTAB, X  CTAB , with the total surfactant concentration fixed at 50 mM using turbidity measurements, rheology, dynamic light scattering, differential scanning calorimetry, small-angle neutron scattering, and small-angle X-ray scattering techniques. The catanionic mixture has been found to exhibit phase transitions from vesicles to micelles as a function of temperature, with some mole fractions of CTAB showing dual transitions. Solutions of X  CTAB = 0.2 to 0.5 exhibited a single transition from vesicles to cylindrical micelles at 45 °C. With an increase in the mole fraction of CTAB from 0.55 to 0.65, dual structural transitions at 30 and 45 °C were observed. The microstructural transition at 30 °C is ascribed to the vesicle aggregation process with smaller vesicles fusing into bigger ones, whereas the transition at 45 °C was evaluated to be the vesicle-to-cylindrical micelle transition. However, at higher mole fractions of CTAB, X  CTAB from 0.65 to 0.90, a single transition from vesicles to small cylindrical/spherical micelles was observed in the solutions, at a lower temperature of 30 °C. To the best of our knowledge, such a microstructural transitions as a function of temperature in a single mixture of cationic and anionic surfactants without any additive has not been reported so far.
