“…The concept of interfacial area saturation is suggested by very different experiments. Only one indirect Raman spectroscopic study seems to disagree with this picture of interfacial adsorption followed by penetration into the micellar core (Shih and Williams 1986). This general concept has been extended and seems also to be valid in mesophases (Boden et al 1987b).…”

From simple micelles in water, nearly spherical aggregates of amphiphilic molecules, to bicontinuous microemulsions, oil and water microheterogeneous mixtures stabilised by a surfactant film with both local and large-scale disordered structures, the world of surfactant-containing systems is fascinating. Depending on a subtle balance of attractive and repulsive interactions between molecules at interfaces, an extraordinarily rich polymorphism of aggregated structures can be observed. After summarising the basic general constraints controlling surfactant aggregation and the formation of interfaces, different structures of micelles and microemulsions are reviewed and related to interfacial film properties and the intermolecular interactions inside them. With such systems, both static (time-averaged) and dynamic properties control structures equally well. Structures of very different systems can be described in simple ways in terms of surfactant film average curvatures and flexibility.

“…Several methods have been used to measure this partition coefficient (22,23), but these methods either require special instrumentation or can only measure the partition coefficient at low alcohol concentrations. Another method uses a "pseudophase" model to describe alcohol partitioning among oil, aqueous, and interfacial phases in microemulsion systems (24)(25)(26)(27).…”

“…Techniques have been developed to aid microdroplet mixing for the study of rapid reactions (87) where Raman spectroscopy can be used to determine mixing times and concentrations (82). Surfactants have been investigated in some depth (83)(84)(85) where solubilization has been monitored.…”
