Abstract
The phase behavior and the solubilization ability of the microemulsion systems containing mixed oils: sodium lauryl sulfate (SDS) + butan-1-ol + oil mixture (hexane + decane, hexane + cyclohexane, hexane + methylbenzene, methylbenzene + decane, methylbenzene + cyclohexane and methylbenzene + tetrachloroethene) + NaCl aqueous solution were studied using the ε–β fishlike phase diagram method. The synergism in the solubilization ability was observed in the microemulsion systems containing mixtures of methylbenzene + hexane, methylbenzene + cyclohexane, and methylbenzene + tetrachloroethene, respectively. The solubility of the alcohol in the oil and aqueous phases and the composition of the interfacial layer in the microemulsion systems containing oil mixtures were also investigated.
