Abstract
The viscosity of household care products plays an important role in pleasant delivery using consumer experience at home. A novel solution to mitigate the sharp rising of viscosities at low temperatures of detergents was proposed. By designing the formulation of the surfactant blend, formulators can achieve acceptable viscosity profiles in the temperature range encountered in daily life. The verification and modulation of formulas bearing parabolic viscosity-temperature behavior were systematically studied, including in single, binary, and ternary systems, based on the modulation of sodium ethoxylated alkyl sulfate (AES) by other anions, zwitterions, and nonions. The R ratio theory was used to have a better understanding of the molecular assembly of surfactants behind the parabolic behavior exhibited in rheology analyses. One of the key findings is that the parabolic viscosity-temperature phenomenon could be easily observed in the highly hydrated ethoxylated anionic systems like AES-based systems. For those anions lacking ethoxylation, especially sodium linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS), the monotonic variation of hydration affinity with temperature led to the disappearance of parabola in the observed temperature window (>0 °C). Moreover, salinity played an important role in the hydration affinity of the polar group and the interaction between the hydrophilic headgroups. A balanced salinity should be optimized to modulate the hydration affinity in a desired range so that the parabola could be easily tuned within the target temperature region. These findings provide opportunities for the formulators in the household care industry to design products with better pourability through carefully selecting a combination of surfactants and fine-tuning their ratios to improve consumer use experience, especially in winter.

Abstract
Hydrogels formed by low-molecular-weight gelators have reversible sol-gel transition and responsiveness to various stimuli, and are used in cosmetics and drug applications. It is challenging to obtain hydrogels using novel gelators because subtle differences in their molecular architecture affect gelation. Organogelators (which form organogels) are insoluble in water, and their use as hydrogelators has not previously been considered. However, a surfactant-mediated gelation method was reported in which organogelators were solubilized in water by surfactants to form hydrogels using 12-hydroxyoctadecanoic acid. To investigate whether this method can be applied with other organogelators, the formation of hydrogel using a glutamic-acid-based organogelator was studied here. Hydrogels were formed by solubilizing 1:1 mixtures of glutamate-based organogelators, N-lauroyl-L-glutamic acid dibuthylamide, and N-2-ethylhexanoyl-L-glutamic acid dibutylamide in aqueous micellar solutions of anionic surfactant (sodium lauroyl glutamate) and cationic surfactant (cetyltrimethylammonium chloride). The minimum gelation concentration of the hydrogel was ~0.2-0.6 wt%. By changing the molar fraction of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride in the mixed surfactant, either spherical or wormlike micelles were formed. The hydrogel with wormlike micelles had a higher sol-gel transition temperature than that with spherical micelles and formed fine self-assembled fibrillar networks. Additionally, the hydrogel with the spherical micelles was elastic, whereas that with wormlike micelles was viscoelastic, suggesting that networks of the organogelators and wormlike micelles coexisted in the hydrogel from the wormlike micellar solution. Moreover, the hydrogel suppressed the reduction in the storage modulus at higher temperatures compared with the micellar aqueous solution, indicating that the elastic properties of the organogelator networks were maintained at high temperatures. The gel fibers of the hydrogel partially formed a loosely aggregated structure as the temperature increased, the fibers bundled via hydrophobic interactions, and new cross-linking points formed spontaneously. This phenomenon corresponded with an inflection point in the temperature-dependent storage modulus of the hydrogel.

Abstract
Sulfate-based formulations can be easily thickened by adding salt or amphoteric cosurfactants. However, sulfate-free and amino acid-based surfactants cannot. We explored an alternative thickening mechanism by studying the thickening effect of adding nonionic cosurfactants to a mixture of an amino acid-based surfactant, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate (SLSar), and a zwitterionic cosurfactant, cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine (CAHS) at a 6:9 weight ratio. To characterize the formulations, we combined traditional rheometry with a state-of-the-art mesoscopic analysis of micelle dynamics obtained via diffusing wave spectroscopy. In addition, the formulations were characterized by cross-polarized light microscopy and dynamic light scattering. The cosurfactants studied included fatty alcohols, alkanediols, a fatty acid, and fatty alcohol ethoxylates (CnE3 and CnE6). Adding the nonionic cosurfactants increased the zero-shear viscosity up to 350 times the viscosity of the no-additive system at neutral pH. When pH titration was incorporated as a second thickening mechanism, the viscosity maximum was lower than the no-additive mixture. Furthermore, the pH of the viscosity maximum was shifted to higher pH for all systems except for CnE6, which shifted the maximum to lower pH. The nonionic amphiphiles also broadened the viscosity maximum, particularly in the C10OH system. Consequently, the C10OH system had a more favorable profile for development as a practical thickening system for an amino acid-based cleanser. Analysis according to the Zou and Larson micelle dynamics model revealed that the broadening effect was associated with substantially longer breakage times for the C10OH system (4-208 ms) compared to the no-additive system (4-38 ms).

Abstract
Surfactant aggregates have long been considered as a tool to improve drug delivery and have been widely used in medical products. The pH-responsive aggregation behavior in anionic gemini surfactant 1,3-bis(N-dodecyl-N-propanesulfonate sodium)-propane (C12C3C12(SO3)2) and its mixture with a cationic monomeric surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) have been investigated. The spherical-to-wormlike micelle transition was successfully realized in C12C3C12(SO3)2 through decreasing the pH, while the rheological properties were perfectly enhanced for the formation of wormlike micelles. Especially at 140 mM and pH 6.7, the mixture showed high viscoelasticity, and the maximum of the zero-shear viscosity reached 1530 Pa·s. Acting as a sulfobetaine zwitterionic gemini surfactant, the electrostatic attraction, the hydrogen bond and the short spacer of C12C3C12(SO3)2 molecules were all responsible for the significant micellar growth. Upon adding CTAB, the similar transition could also be realized at a low pH, and the further transformation to branched micelles occurred by adjusting the total concentration. Although the mixtures did not approach the viscosity maximum appearing in the C12C3C12(SO3)2 solution, CTAB addition is more favorable for viscosity enhancement in the wormlike-micelle region. The weakened charges of the headgroups in a catanionic mixed system minimizes the micellar spontaneous curvature and enhances the intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interaction between C12C3C12(SO3)2, facilitating the formation of a viscous solution, which would greatly induce entanglement and even the fusion of wormlike micelles, thus resulting in branched microstructures and a decline of viscosity.

Abstract
Mixtures of surfactants, long-chain alcohols, and water sometimes yield lamellar gels with hexagonally packed alkyl chains. This assembly is called "α-gel" or "α-form hydrated crystal." In this study, we characterized the rheological properties of α-gel prepared using disodium N-dodecanoylglutamate (C12Glu-2Na), 1-hexadecanol (C16OH), and water at different NaCl concentrations. The α-gel structure was assessed using small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SWAXS). The SWAXS measurements revealed that an increased NaCl concentration (0-200 mmol dm-3) resulted in a decreased d-spacing caused by the screening of electrostatic repulsion between lamellar bilayers. This led to an increased amount of excess water (i.e., the water present between the α-gel domains), and hence, the viscosity of the α-gel decreased in the range of the NaCl concentration. A further increase in the NaCl concentration (200-1000 mmol dm-3) resulted in decreased electrostatic repulsion between the α-gel domains and/or an increased number of α-gel domains (multilamellar vesicles). These effects increased the domain-to-domain interactions, leading to increased viscosity. Therefore, we concluded that the viscosity of the α-gel was controlled by the amount of excess water and the domain-to-domain interactions. Once the network structure collapsed under the strain, it was difficult to recover the original network structure. The low recoverability resulted from increased cohesion between the domains at high NaCl concentrations.

Abstract
We studied the impact of pH as a thickening mechanism on the structure and dynamics of wormlike micelles in a mixture of sodium lauroyl sarcosinate (SLSar) and cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine (CAHS). The viscoelastic properties were obtained using mechanical rheometry and diffusing wave spectroscopy, which provided access to a wide range of frequencies. By using a mesoscopic simulation method [Zou; Larson. J. Rheol. 2014, 58 (3), 681-721], characteristic micelle lengths and times were extracted including contour length, persistence length, entanglement length, reptation time, breakage time, breakage rate, and breakage rate constant. The interplay of pH-dependent reptation times (10-1000 ms) and breakage times (4-38 ms) leads to a minimum in the ratio of reptation time to breakage time of about 0.02 at pH 4.8. This minimum was closely associated with the sharp increase and decrease of the observed viscosity maximum at pH 4.8 in this system. These values may be contrasted with much longer breakage times (20-300 ms) that have been measured in more easily thickened sulfate-based systems. The low breakage times of the SLSar/CAHS system were attributed to the high and pH-sensitive breakage rate constants (0.01-0.17 ms-1 μm-1).

Abstract
We studied the physicochemical properties of 1:1 stoichiometric complexes of acylglutamic acids (CnGlu) with tertiary alkylamines (CnDMA) in water at their low and high concentrations. Static surface tensiometry suggested that the critical micelle concentration (cmc) decreased with increasing hydrophobic chain length of the complexes. In addition, CnGlu-CnDMA yielded lower cmc than the C12Glu single system. In the region of high concentrations, several phase states including isotropic liquid (L1) phase, hexagonal liquid crystal (H1) phase, bicontinuous cubic liquid crystal (V1) phase, and lamellar liquid crystal (Lα) phase were observed. Assemblies with lesser positive curvature tend to be formed with increasing complex concentration, increasing temperature, and increasing hydrophobic chain length. Additionally, the complex formation resulted in the molecular assemblies with lesser positive curvature.

Abstract
The emergence of aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) has significantly stimulated the development of luminescent supramolecular materials because their strong emissions in the aggregated state have resolved the notorious obstacle of the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect, thereby enabling AIEgen-based supramolecular materials to have a promising prospect in the fields of luminescent materials, sensors, bioimaging, drug delivery, and theranostics. Moreover, in contrast to conventional fluorescent molecules, the configuration of AIEgens is highly twisted in space. Investigating AIEgens and the corresponding supramolecular materials provides fundamental insights into the self-assembly of nonplanar molecules, drastically expands the building blocks of supramolecular materials, and pushes forward the frontiers of supramolecular chemistry. In this review, we will summarize the basic concepts, seminal studies, recent trends, and perspectives in the construction and applications of AIEgen-based supramolecular materials with the hope to inspire more interest and additional ideas from researchers and further advance the development of supramolecular chemistry.

Abstract
Abstract
The consumer demand for greener, sustainable and skin friendly chemicals is driving the use of amino-acid based surfactants in the personal care area. Acyl glutamates and glycinates are already being used in commercial products. Available literature clearly shows that the amino acid based surfactants are generally milder than their corresponding alkyl sulfates and carboxylates. However, they do offer some interesting challenges in the area of structuring and consumer desired lather properties. Furthermore, the amino acid surfactants, unlike alkyl sulfates, have pH as an interesting variable for fine-tuning their functional properties. In this paper, the solution, interfacial and skin mildness properties of commercially relevant amino acid surfactants are reviewed and the opportunities and challenges for their wider application are outlined.

Abstract
A worm-like micelle (WLM) system can be obtained by mixing long-chain cationic surfactants and polybasic organic acids in an aqueous solution. However, the effect of different organic acid structures on the rheological behavior of WLM systems has not been researched. Herein, a novel pH-responsive wormlike micelle system (EATA) was constructed by the complexation of N-erucamidopropyl-N,N-dimethylamine (UC22AMPM) and benzene tricarboxylic acid (TA) at a molar ratio of 3 : 1. UC22AMPM/citric acid (EACA) was also prepared to perform a comparison. The rheological behavior, aggregate transformation and thickening mechanism of EATA solutions were investigated by using rheological measurements, cryo-TEM, DLS, surface tension and 1H NMR. The results show that, at low pH, spherical micelles were formed and the EATA solution exhibited a lower viscosity than the EACA system due to the strong hydrophobicity of the phenyl groups of TA molecules, but the viscosity reaches 106 mP s at pH 4.80. Because of the lower pKa value of TA than CA, the viscosity of the EATA system drops sharply with the appearance of precipitates caused by the isoelectric point when the pH is greater than 4.80. In addition, by circularly changing the pH value several times, the wormlike micelles could maintain their original viscoelasticity without being weakened in the slightest.

Abstract
We have studied the preparation and stabilization mechanism of oil-in-water-type emulsions in the presence of amphiphilic 1:1 stoichiometric complexes of acylglutamic acids (CnGlu) with tertiary alkylamines (CnDMA). Relatively stable emulsions were obtained when C16Glu-C16DMA (or C18Glu-C18DMA), hexadecane, and water were homogenized at 80 °C and then stored at room temperature. The gel-liquid crystal phase transition temperatures (Tc) of C16Glu-C16DMA and C18Glu-C18DMA dispersed in water were determined to be ca. 39 and 53 °C, respectively. This indicates that the complexes form an adsorbed layer at the oil/water interface during the homogenization process above the Tc and then change into a gel during storage at room temperature. The gel phase formed at the oil/water interface prevents the oil droplets from coalescing. In contrast, shorter chain analogues (C10Glu-C10DMA and C12Glu-C12DMA) did not yield stable emulsions because their adsorption layers were not able to prevent coalescence of the oil droplets (i.e., the Tc of these analogues was below the room temperature). We have also demonstrated that the dispersion stability of these emulsion systems can be controlled by changing the aqueous pH.

Abstract
A zwitterionic gemini surfactant, called 2,2'-(1,4-phenylenebis(oxy))bis(N,N-dimethyl)-N-carboxyethyl-N-(alkylamide propyl) ammonium chloride (C14-B-C14), was synthesized successfully. The surfactant molecule exhibits various states at different pH values due to the two pH-sensitive carboxylate groups in the molecule. The surface activity and aggregate behaviors of C14-B-C14 in the aqueous solution were investigated under different pH conditions. The surface activities of the surfactant decrease with the increase in pH due to higher hydrophilic properties under basic conditions. The aggregate behaviours were also studied in acidic, near neutral and alkaline solutions, respectively. When the pH values of the solutions increased from acidic conditions to near neutral conditions (6.80), the samples immediately transformed from water-like solutions to viscoelastic fluids and remained gel-like under basic conditions. The changes in the appearance of the solution were due to the transition of the micelle structure from spherical to worm-like. Furthermore, this transition was reversible and repeated for at least 4 cycles. Finally, a reasonable mechanism of the appearance and transition of micelles was proposed based on the molecular states, viscoelastic properties and micelle structures.

Abstract
The formation of self-assemblies in mixed amino acid-based anionic N-hexadecanoylglutamic acid (HGA) and cationic benzyldimethyl hexadecylammonium chloride (HDBAC) surfactants in aqueous solutions has been characterized. With rheological analysis, the viscoelastic properties of the mixed system are found to be completely dependent on the concentration of HDBAC. Molecular dynamics simulation results suggest that the morphology of self-assembly can be regulated from spherical micelles to wormlike micelles by the addition of HDBAC. The aromatic group of HDBAC adsorption provides a "charge-neutral" function to the micelle corona; the repulsive interactions within the head group of HGA are progressively screened and closely packed. In addition, the dynamic processes and formation mechanisms of self-assembly were analyzed in detail with molecular simulation techniques.

Abstract
A series of tertiary amide-based gemini surfactants, 2,2'-(1,4-phenylenebis(oxy))bis(N-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)alkylamide), abbreviated as Cm-A-Cm (m = 8; 10; 12; 14), were synthesized. The surface property and aggregation behaviors of the Cm-A-Cm aqueous solutions were studied in detail. The Cm-A-Cm exhibited high and pH-regulated surface activity at the air/water interface; i.e., the critical micelle concentration was 5.6 × 10(-6) mol L(-1) at pH = 2.50 when m = 14 and was further regulated to 1.8 × 10(-6) mol L(-1) by altering the pH to 6.50. When the pH was tuned from 2.0 to 12.0, the appearance of the C12-A-C12 aqueous solution (35 mM) underwent 5 states: transparent water-like solution, viscous fluid, gel-like fluid, turbid liquid and dispersion system with white precipitate. The results of rheology, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering characterization revealed that the transition from water-like to viscous or gel-like liquid was actually due to aggregate microstructure transition from spherical to worm-like micelles. This transition was completely reversible between pH = 2.50 and 6.81, tuned by adding HCl and NaOH solutions for at least 4 cycles. Similar micellar transitions regulated by pH were also found for m = 8 and 10, whereas only worm-like micelles were formed for m = 14 at both acidic and nearly neutral conditions. Finally, a reasonable mechanism of aggregate behavior transition was proposed from the viewpoint of the molecular states, molecular structures, and the intra- and inter-molecular interactions.

Abstract
Wormlike micelles are typically formed by mixing cationic and anionic surfactants because of attractive interactions in oppositely charged head-groups. The structural transitions of wormlike micelles triggered by pH in ionic liquids composed of N-alkyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bromide-based ILs (ionic liquids) and anthranilic acid were investigated. These structures were found responsible for the variations in flow properties identified by rheology and dynamic light scattering, and account for the structures observed with cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (Cryo-TEM). High-viscosity, shear-thinning behavior, and Maxwell-type dynamic rheology shown by the system at certain pH values suggested that spherical micelles grow into entangled wormlike micelles. Light scattering profiles also supported the notion of pH-sensitive microstructural transitions in the solution. Cryo-TEM images confirmed the presence of spherical micelles in the low-viscosity sample and entangled wormlike micelles in the peak viscosity sample. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy analysis revealed that the pH sensitivity of ionic liquid systems originated from the pH-dependent binding ability of anthranilic acid to the cationic headgroup of ionic liquids.

Abstract
We studied the effects of the spacer chain length of amino acid-based gemini surfactants on the formation of wormlike micelles in aqueous solutions. The surfactants used were synthesized by reacting dodecanoylglutamic acid anhydride with diamine compounds (ethylenediamine, pentanediamine, and octanediamine), and were abbreviated as 12-GsG-12 (s: the spacer chain length of 2, 5, and 8 methylene units). These surfactants yielded viscoelastic wormlike micellar solutions at pH 9 upon mixing with a cationic monomeric surfactant, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HTAB). We found that the rheological behavior was strongly dependent on the spacer chain length and HTAB concentration. When the shortest spacer chain analogue (12-G2G-12) was used, an increased HTAB concentration resulted in the following structural transformations of the micelles: (i) spherical or rodlike micelles; (ii) anionic wormlike micelles exhibiting a transient network structure; (iii) anionic wormlike micelles with a micellar branching or interconnected structure; and (iv) cationic wormlike micelles. Similarly, when the middle spacer chain analogue (12-G5G-12) was used, a structural transformation from anionic to cationic wormlike micelles occurs; however, molecular aggregates with a lower positive curvature were also formed in this transition region. When the longest spacer analogue (12-G8G-12) was used, the formation of cation-rich molecular aggregates was not observed. These transition behaviors were attributed to the packing geometry of the gemini surfactants with HTAB. Additionally, as the spacer chain length increased, the zero-shear viscosity in the anionic wormlike micellar region decreased, suggesting limited one-dimensional micellar growth of spherical, rodlike, or anionic wormlike micelles.
