Abstract
The composition and solubilization of the optimum microemulsion systems containing Triton X-100/pentan-1-ol/aliphatic hydrocarbon/water were studied with the ∊-β fishlike phase diagram method. The solubilities of the alkanol (S
A), the mass fractions of the alkanol in the interfacial layer (AS
) and the optimum solubilization parameters (SP∗) of the microemulsion systems with different aqueous phases (salt, acid, alkali) and with different α values were obtained and discussed. The SP∗ values increase significantly with the cation radius of the chlorides (NaCl, KCl, CsCl), but decrease slightly with the anion radius of the sodium halides (NaCl, NaBr, NaI). However, SP∗ values decrease with the increased salinities and NaOH contents. The trend was reversed for the acid systems. When the oil-water ratio (α) increases, the S
A and A
S values significantly increase, while the SP∗ values increase slowly. As the length of the carbon chain of the alkane molecules increases, both the S
A and A
S values increase, while the SP∗ values decrease significantly.
