Is there a CMC for surfactants in non-aqueous solvents?
The aim of this project is to use SANS to determine if a critical micelle concentration (CMC) exists for the formation of inverse micelles in non-polar solvents. The CMC is a... -
Co-micellization of hydrotropes and surfactants
This proposal builds on recent work with hydrotropes alone (Langmuir, 2011, 27, 12346-12353); now co-micellisation of hydrotropes with surfactants will be investigated. The aim... -
Mesophase transition induced by nanoparticles
In a previous SAXS experiment at Max-Lab (Sweden) we observed that the thermotropic mesophase transitional behaviour of the monoolein(MO):cholesterol:water system was...
