Liposomes with enhanced elasticity have been proven to increase the efficiency of drug transport across the skin. The understanding of the background physicochemical processes driving the liposome viscoelastic properties is an essential feature for the design of effective formulations involving different lipids and additive molecules. In this work we use field-cycled nuclear magnetic resonance relaxometry to analyze both the mechanical properties of liposome membranes, and their relationship with the involved molecular dynamics. Different liposomal formulations were considered. We show a correlation between the molecular dynamical regime and mesoscopic physical parameters that define the expected deformability of the vesicles. Results strongly suggest that the purity of the used lipids may influence the elastic properties of the membranes in an appreciable way. Common features in the behaviour of the involved dynamic variables were identified by comparing formulations with surfactants of similar molecular weight.
