Micelle Formation under Unusual Conditions and Optimizing Solubilization in Micellar Solutions.

Abstract

Spontaneous thermodynamically stable vesicles were discovered. Simple three-component microemulsions were formulated and their properties described. Video enhanced contrast differential interference microscopy was applied for the first time to the characterization of colloidal material. Micelle and liquid crystal formations were documented in ethylammonium nitrate and hydrazine and used to reinterpret hydrophobic effects in aqueous solution.
