Abstract
The conductance behaviors of AOT in alkanol (hexanol, heptanol, octanol, and decanol) reverse microemulsions have been investigated. The percolation phenomenon induced by water is observed in the water/AOT/decanol system at 15°C and 30°C, and the water/AOT/octanol system at 15°C. The percolation phenomenon of water/AOT/alkanol systems is discussed from the interaction between the hydroxy group of alkanol and the polar group of AOT, droplets diffusion coefficient, and the rate constant for droplets collision. The droplets size and diffusion coefficient of the water/AOT/alkanol systems have also been studied by modifying the water concentration. The results show that hydrodynamic diameter of droplets decreases and diffusion coefficient increases with the increasing of water content, which may be explained by the polarity of alkanol phase.
