Design of Viscoelastic Surfactant-oil-water Structures with the Hydrophilic-lipophilic Difference (HLD) and Net-average Curvature (NAC) Frameworks
Manipulating the self-assembly of surfactants into viscoelastic structures such as wormlike micelles and liquid crystals is an important aspect in the development of personal care products and nanostructured materials. Central to this is the curvature of the surfactant membrane, which is one of the …
