Abstract

Small-angle neutron scattering and contrast variation has been employed to quantify how a series of alcohols with increasing hydrophobicity exert different abilities to structure a model toluene based metallomicroemulsion – a microemulsion system stabilised with a metallosurfactant. Classical microemulsion phase evolution and droplet structure are observed, leading to an oil rich core stabilised by a surfactant film containing a highly concentrated, hydrated metal ion layer.
