✦ Synopsis

In our previous paper ( 7), we reported the CTAB/benzyl The phase diagram of the CPyCl/1-BuOH/H 2 O ternary system alcohol/water ternary system phase diagram, analyzing the inhas been established. The system presents a two-phase region along fluence of the alcohol aromatic group on the phase diagram. the water/alcohol axis. It consists of a clear isotropic and low It is similar to the CTAB/1-BuOH/H 2 O phase diagram. Both viscous region, which extends from the water-rich corner to the diagrams show the isotropic and low viscous region extending alcohol-rich corner, the L phase, and two liquid crystalline mesofrom the water-rich corner to the alcohol-rich corner, L phase, phases that have been characterized as hexagonal, H 1 , and lamelthe lamellar and hexagonal liquid crystalline phases, and a lar, L. The L phase has been studied by means of conductivity. biphasic region extending over the water/alcohol axis. In addi-᭧ 1997 Academic Press tion, they show a small cubic liquid crystal region.
