Formation of viscoelastic wormlike micelles in aqueous systems of mixed amino acid based anionic and nonionic surfactants in presence of salt is presented. N-dodecylglutamic acid (LAD) upon neutralization with L-Lysine in 1:2 mole ratio forms globular type of micelles above critical micelle concentration and the solution follows Newtonian fluid like behavior at 25ºC. The addition of tri(oxyethylene) nmonotetradecyl ether (C14EO3) to the semi-dilute aqueous solution of the LADLysine-2 induces one dimensional micellar growth and viscosity of solution increases. After a certain concentration of C14EO3 micelles get entangled and form a rigid network of wormlike micelles and viscosity increases by several orders of magnitude. The wormlike micellar solutions show a viscoelastic character and can be described the Maxwell mechanical model with a single stress relaxation. Rheological measurements have shown that zero shear viscosity (No) increases with the C14EO3 concentration gradually at first sharpl, and then finally decreases before phase separation.Keywords: nonionic surfactant, wormlike micelles, rheology, viscoelastic solutionsDOI: 10.3126/jncs.v23i0.2098J.

Abstract We propose a one-dimensional model for the dilute aqueous solution of NaCl which is treated as an incompressible fluid placed in the external electric field. This model is based on the Poisson-Nernst-Planck system of equations, which also contains the constant flow velocity as a parameter and considers the dissociation and the recombination of ions. We study the steady-state solution analytically and prove that it is a stable equilibrium. Analyzing the numerical solutions, we demonstrate the importance of dissociation and recombination for the physical meaningfulness of the model.

Cryogenic wormlike micellar solutions with a freezing point far below 0 °C and unique rheological behavior are fabricated from the self-assembly of a C22-tailed zwitterionic surfactant in a mixed solvent of ethylene glycol and water. Such fluids could find applications in areas where viscoelasticity is highly desired at subfreezing temperatures.
