Hydrotropy, solubilisation and related Emulsification processes. Part I

Abstract

Examples of the mutual solubilisation of water and various organic liquids by means of Aerosol OT, sodium undecylate, mixtures of Aerosol OT and sodium undecylate, mixtures of sodium and organic ammonium secondary C 10-C18 alkyl sulphates, sodium undecane-3 sulphate, sodium undecane-3 carboxylate, undecane-1 and -3 ammonium chlorides, sodium n-butyrate and sodium isobutyrate are described. All these examples conform in general outlines to the classification of partly and completely solubilised systems given in Part I and to the theory of solubilisation there advanced.
