Ion induced lamellar-lamellar phase transition in charged surfactant systems.
We propose a model for the liquid-liquid (L(alpha)-->L(alpha(') )) phase transition observed in osmotic pressure measurements of certain charged lamellae-forming amphiphiles. The model free energy combines mean-field electrostatic and phenomenological nonelectrostatic interactions, while the number of dissociated counterions is treated as a variable degree of freedom that is determined self-con...
متن کاملIon extraction mechanism studied in a lyotropic lamellar phase.
In this paper we used a surfactant-stabilized lyotropic lamellar model system to study the interfacial behavior of an ion-extracting agent: N(1),N(3) dimethyl-N(1),N(3)-dibutyl-2-tetradecylmalonamide (DMDBTDMA). An analysis of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and polarized attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) data enabled us to describe the distribution of the m...
متن کاملThe Lamellar-to-Isotropic Transition in Ternary Amphiphilic Systems
We study the dependence of the phase behavior of ternary amphiphilic systems on composition and temperature. Our analysis is based on a curvature elastic model of the amphiphile film with sufficiently large spontaneous curvature c0 and sufficiently negative saddle-splay modulus κ̄ that the stable phases are the lamellar phase and a droplet microemulsion. In addition to the curvature energy, we c...
متن کاملShear-induced collapse in a lyotropic lamellar phase.
An entropically stabilized cetylpyridinium chloride, hexanol, and heavy brine lyotropic lamellar phase subjected to shear flow has been observed here by small angle neutron scattering to undergo collapse of smectic order above a threshold shear rate. The results are compared with theories predicting that such a lamellar phase sheared above a critical rate should lose its stability by a loss of ...
متن کاملIon and Surfactant Induced Wetting Transition Ion and Surfactant Induced Wetting Transition
The ever-increasing demand for energy in our society calls for more efficient andsustainable recovery of fossil fuels. Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) deals with im-proving the recovery of oil from reservoirs. It encompasses not only the large-scaleengineering enterprise, but also the fundamental understanding and discovery ofthe relevant physicochemical processes. The motivation fo...
