Abstract

In order to investigate the orthogonal self-assembled character of gelled bicontinuous microemulsions the first and fundamental step was to identify under which conditions a mixture of water, n-decane, C10E4 and 12-HOA forms the desired system. Thus it was crucial to carry out phase studies. On the one hand, a microemulsion is known to be bicontinuous at its \(\widetilde{T}\) temperature.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Note that the main results of this Chapter have already been published in a peer-reviewed paper entitled “Studying orthogonal self-assembled systems: phase behaviour and rheology of gelled microemulsions” in the journal Soft Matter [2]. The figures are herein reproduced, in modified form, by permission of The Royal Society of Chemistry.

  2. 2.

    Measurements carried out by Kristina Jovic during her bachelor thesis and her ‘Hiwi’ employment under my supervision. Note that such measurements will in the following be indicated by “KJ”

  3. 3.

    The density measurements were carried out with a DMA 5000 M density meter from Anton Paar.
