The concentration effect of ionic surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulphate, N ‐hexadecyl‐ N , N , N ‐trimethylammonium hydrogensulphate, 3‐( N , N ‐dimethyl‐ N ‐myristylammonio)propanesulfonate) and tetrabutylammonium hydrogensulphate was investigated on the Briggs‐Rauscher (BR) oscillatory reaction in a stirred batch reactor at 25 ± 0.1 °C in both the absence and presence of an ionic surfactant. In the presence of the anionic surfactant, the induction period (IP) and the oscillation period (OP) increase markedly, and the amplitude of oscillations decreases with increasing concentration of sodium dodecyl sulphate. These effects have been observed when the concentration of surfactant is much higher than its critical micelle concentration. Another effect on IP and OP has been observed in the presence of cationic and zwitterionic surfactants. A decrease in IP leads to its extinction at a certain concentration and at the same time, chemical oscillations divide into two series of chemical oscillations. TBAH does not have a major influence on IP and OP of the BR oscillatory reaction. The observed effects are explained in terms of micellar catalysis or inhibition in different extents of individual reactants solubilisation respectively.
