Organogels with CO2-philic surfactants

DOI

SANS will be used to probe the internal structures of organogels consisting of custom synthesized CO2-philic surfactants and p-phenol low molecular weight organogelators (LMOGs, Figure 1). These LMOGs are commercially available and relatively low in cost, it is proposed that the internal structures of these thermoresponsive structures will be explored around the pronounced ‘melting’ point (Figure 3), where a sharp decrease in viscosity is observed. The surfactants under study are partially fluorinated analogues of commercially available Na(AOT) (Figure 1,a-c), and interestingly, are seen as ‘universal surfactants’, due to their compatibility in water and oils, as well as in high pressure solvents such as supercritical CO2 (scCO2)1,2
