DSC Analysis of Surfactant-Based Microstructures

“…The average deviation in using this equation is about 3%. This jump appears when a two-component system undergoes a transition from a one-phase state (phase a) to a two-phase state (phases a ϩ b) [6]: This jump appears when a two-component system undergoes a transition from a one-phase state (phase a) to a two-phase state (phases a ϩ b) [6]:…”

“…In other systems the difference may be up to three orders of magnitude [2]. 1 [6]. From enthalpy and mass conservation considerations, they derived some universal formulas that permit the calculation of the specific heat capacity as a function of temperature during the melting of a binary sample and provide a generalized description of any other continuous phase transition in a binary mixture, such as evaporation, sublimation, fusion, and mixing-demixing phenomena.…”

“…Transition temperatures and enthalpies are often determined and used to draw the limits of existence of the different phases of surfactant-based systems [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Transition temperatures and enthalpies are often determined and used to draw the limits of existence of the different phases of surfactant-based systems [1][2][3][4][5][6].…”

“…Transition temperatures and enthalpies are often determined and used to draw the limits of existence of the different phases of surfactant-based systems [1][2][3][4][5][6]. The properties that can be obtained from DSC for binary systems are the following [6]: DSC is also a useful technique to obtain information about the phase diagrams of surfactant-based systems and the various microstructures formed in these systems.…”
