Abstract

It has been shown that the presence of small amounts of di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (below 6 mol % in the mixture of surfactants) in a sodium di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate–di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid–decane–water system widens the region of microemulsion existence with respect water and decreases the slope of the dependence of hydrodynamic droplet diameter of on water-to-sodium di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate molar ratio. At di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid concentrations in its mixture with sodium di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate higher than 6 mol %, the fraction of water bound with ions in microemulsion droplets decreases, the region of microemulsion existence narrows, specific conductance decreases, and the slope of the dependence of the hydrodynamic droplet diameter of on the water-to-sodium di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate molar ration increases.
