A Proton and Carbon-13 NMR Study on the State of Water Solubilized by Detergent Aggregates in Organic Solvents

Proton NMR studies on the structure of water in ionic and nonionic water‐in‐oil microemulsions

“…Alternatively, however, this dependence can be described in terms of the presence one type of water, whose properties change continuously as a function of increasing W / S , in a way akin to the dilution of concentrated salt solutions. This conclusion is in agreement with those based on fluorescence measurements [33], IR [ l i d , 181, NMR studies of RMs [12,201 and of concentrated salt solutions [34], and with theoretical calculations on molecular dynamics of water [35].

Dipyridamole Interacts with the Polar Part of Cationic Reversed Micelles in Chloroform:1H NMR and ESR Evidence

“…Relative intensity, linewidth, and chemical containing the ''bulk''-like water are usually referred to as ''water-in-oil microemulsions,'' however, in future discussion we will use only the term RM for simplicity. It should also be recognized that despite the wide use of the terms such as ''water of hydration'' and ''bulk''-like water, our data have actually nothing to do with the discussion as to whether two or more layers of water virtually coexist inside RM (15,(20)(21)(22). Our measurements cannot discriminate between some physically averaged state of water and the weighted average due to different rapidly exchanging (on the NMR time scale) water pools, so that the described threestates concept is just a convenient means for presentation of results.…”

Ionic Strength Effects of Electrolytes on Solubilized States of Water in AOT Reversed Micelles

“…Because water solubilized in reversed micelles exhibits a similar behavior to water close to biological membranes or proteins, many works have focused on water behavior in reversed micelles (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8). However, the types of solubilized water were widely different among the measuring techniques, irrespective of identical surfactant systems.…”
