✦ Synopsis


Ternary oil-water double chained cationic microemulsions provide a sensitive system to explore specific ion effects. Very slight changes in ionic concentrations of perturbing Hofmeister ions show up dramatic changes in bulk phase behavior that seem to throw some new light on the problem of water structure.

We consider the effect of a static field on the average orientation of a "charged dumbbell" made of two bound droplets bearing one electron charge on its waist, and the Kerr effects resulting from this orientation. A negative contribution is found which may be dominant in some conditions.

The polymerization of acrylamide in a water/oil cationic microemulsion initiated with a water-soluble radical initiator, potassium persulfate (KPS), was investigated. The kinetics of microemulsion polymerization clearly shows a two-stage process; when the initiator is dissolved in a monomer solution
