| Abstract: | The effect of adding tri(oxyethylene) dodecyl ether (C12EO3) on the phase and rheological behavior of sucrose hexadecanoate and CTAB aqueous solutions in the presence of added salt (NaBr) was investigated. Viscoelastic solutions are formed in CTAB and C16SE systems upon addition of lipophilic nonionic surfactant C12EO3. The zero-shear viscosity shows a maximum at a certain mixing fraction of C12EO3, except in the case of the aqueous CTAB/C12EO3 system in the absence of salt. The rheological properties are strongly affected by the addition of salt to the CTAB systems but they remain unaltered in the case of C16SE systems. In ionic systems, the mixing fraction of C12EO3 for the maximum viscosity depends on salt concentration. |
