| Abstract: | we have established experimentally the region of existence of smectic and sponge lyotropic microstructures in the presence of synthetic hydrophilic clay particles. Taking into account the adsorption isotherm, we determined the extension of the single-phase regions by visual inspection and looking at low-q behaviour of the small-angle neutron scattering. Conditions of stability such as geometric constraints associated with fluctuation quenching are discussed. Received 11 December 2000 and Received in final form 11 April 2001 |
