Effect of ionic surfactants on the iridescent color in lamellar liquid crystalline phase of a nonionic surfactant.
A nonionic surfactant, n-dodecyl glyceryl itaconate (DGI), self-assembles into bilayer membranes in water having a spacing distance of sub-micrometer in the presence of small amounts of ionic surfactants, and shows beautiful iridescent color. Ionic surfactants have strong effects on this iridescent system. We have interestingly found that the iridescent color changes with time after mixing DGI ...
متن کاملSwelling kinetics of a compressed lamellar phase
We investigate how multilamellar vesicles prepared in a compressed state under flow return to equilibrium. The kinetics is studied by following the temporal evolution of the viscoelasticity after the shear is stopped. It exhibits a two-step relaxation whose slower stage is strongly affected by temperature. According to a simple model, the temperature-dependent permeability of the lamellar phase...
متن کاملSlow dynamics of a colloidal lamellar phase.
We used x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy to study the dynamics in the lamellar phase of a platelet suspension as a function of the particle concentration. We measured the collective diffusion coefficient along the director of the phase, over length scales down to the interparticle distance, and quantified the hydrodynamic interaction between the particles. This interaction sets in with inc...
متن کاملEvolution of Microstructure and Viscoelasticity during Flow Alignment of a Lamellar Diblock Copolymer
The effects of flow alignment on the relaxation dynamics of a lamellar dihlock copolymer melt and the dynamics of flow alignment itself are investigated using simultaneous measurements of shear stress and birefringence in both the flow plane and the sample plane. The primary advantage of this rhea-optical approach in the context of flow alignment is that it provides quantitative measurements of...
متن کاملIon 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...
