Due to their unique microstructure and modifiable rheological properties, wormlike micelles that respond to environmental stimulation have garnered significant interest in recent years. Among them, CO 2 -responsive wormlike micelles have the advantages of simple preparation and controllable properties, which have significant development potential in the food chemistry field of thickeners. In this study, CO 2 -responsive wormlike micelles were prepared using docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), pyridoxamine (PA), and glucosamine (GA); the stimulus-responsive behaviors and mechanisms of the two systems, namely, NaDHA/PA and NaDHA/GA, were investigated using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and cryo-transmission electron microscopy (Cryo-TEM). The nearly unaltered viscosity of the systems confirmed the cyclic reversibility of the CO 2 response of the two systems when the two mixed solutions were converted back to aqueous liquids 10 times. The preparation and properties of DHA-based CO 2 -responsive wormlike micelles are expected to advance fundamental research and establish the theoretical groundwork for their practical application in controllable thickening agents in food chemistry.
