The effect of additives of various surfactants on the Belousov-Zhabotinsky oscillatory chemical reaction in aqueous solutions was studied. The influence of the concentration of nonionic and ionic surfactants Tyloxapol, Triton X-100, Pluronic F127 and Sodium diethylhexylsulfosuccinate (AOT) on the induction period and oscillation frequency of this reaction was studied. It has been established that with an increase in the concentration of polymeric surfactants Tyloxapol and Pluronic F127, the frequency of reaction oscillations and the induction period increase, and the addition of monomeric surfactants, namely Triton X-100 and AOT, reduces the frequency of oscillations and the induction period of the reaction.
