“…In response to external stimuli such as light (Eastoe et al, 2004), temperature (Binks et al, 2005; Zoppe et al, 2012), pH (Morse et al, 2013), CO 2 (Liu et al, 2006), and so forth, the microscopic appearance and macroscopic characteristics of switchable surfactants undergo a substantial transformation. They have substantial application potential in the oil and gas industry (Klier et al, 2000; Li et al, 2018) and drug delivery (Fernandes et al, 2016; Kogan & Garti, 2006). Using CO 2 as an external trigger to modify the properties of aqueous solutions with CO 2 ‐switchable surfactants is a simple and environmentally beneficial way.…”
