Abstract
We discuss the above referenced article by Daicic et al. and show that the light-scattering data measured by them on the phase of the sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate–brine system are essentially similar to those presented previously by us for the same system. After reanalyzing the thermodynamic model of the authors, we show that their data do not bring convincing evidence against logarithmic correction to ideal scaling.
