Abstract
In this paper, interaction between Brij97 and NaDC in mixed micelles was studied by surface tension method. Phase behavior for Brij97/NaDC/IPM/H2O system was investigated at the desire molar ratio of αNaDC = 0.42 and the human body temperature of 37 °C. Hexagonal and cubic liquid crystal were found in this system analyzed by small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). some factors were changed to affect the rheological properties of liquid crystal. Rheological investigations showed: The higher content of water and lower experimental temperature favored the greater values of shear viscosity and viscoelastic modulus; The sample was closer to the plastic fluid and was more likely to recover from disturbed state to equilibrium state at lower ratio of NaDC; The curcumin and TP can influence the shear viscosity, viscoelastic properties and phase transition temperature, even change the structure of liquid crystal. This supplies a way to adjust rheological properties, structure and even phase transition by altering those factors.
