Abstract
The surfactant monolayer of W/O microemulsion droplets is an excellent solubilization environment for hydrophobic amino acids. By their nature and their mode of solubilization, these solutes act as cosurfactants, expanding the droplet interfaces and allowing larger water uptakes by the W/O microemulsion phase in Winsor II systems. The amino acid cosurfactant effect is examined in this paper both experimentally, using the AOT Winsor II system and the phase-equilibrium experiment, and theoretically, using the method of interfacial thermodynamics
