Abstract: Research work achievements with respect to solution properties of Gemini surfactant with molecular simulation method were summarized. The aggregation process and mechanism,the morphology of micelles in equilibrium,phase transition process,the synergistic effect between Gemini surfactant and other molecules as well as various influencing factors of the Gemini surfactants found via molecular simulation calculation method were introduced. In addition,the interfacial properties of Gemini surfactants were also presented. Outlooks for the application of molecular simulation method in this field were prospected.
