We report a neutron spin echo (NSE) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) study of droplet dynamics in a microemulsion at high droplet packing fraction (F droplet B62%). NSE measurements in range qrb1 allow to investigate the short-range Brownian motion of droplets trapped within the cages formed by th

β¦ Synopsis
By using neutron spin echo and synchrotron radiation small-angle X-ray scattering, we have studied the structure and dynamics of water/sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate/d 16 -n-heptane microemulsion with varying water/surfactant molar ratio, w 0 . We have found the anomalous q-dependence of the effective diffusion coefficient D eff at low w 0 whose peak-position at low w 0 does not satisfy the predicted relation of qR p (R, microemulsion radius). This would relate to the presence of the oligomeric phase at low w 0 observed by SAXS.

High-pressure FT-IR spectroscopy was used to study a W/O microemulsion system of AOT micelles dispersed in supercritical ethane. The system was found to be in a single-phase state depending on the pressure (P), temperature (T), and water-to-AOT molar ratio (W0). The number of water molecules that th
