摘要
The effect of NaCl and Na2SO4 concentrations in aqueous phase on the phase inversion temperature (PIT) in nanoemulsions of water/Brij30/n-hexadecane system has been studied separately, and then compared. The variation of conductivity with temperature was measured by Cyber Scan PC510 conductivity meter for emulsions with 20 wt% hexadecane and 8 wt% Brij30 concentration and different concentrations of NaCl and Na2SO4 in aqueous phase. The results showed that with increasing concentrations of NaCl and Na2SO4 in aqueous phase, the PIT of nanoemulsions decreases. The effect of the elevation of concentration on the decrease of PIT was more for Na2SO4 in aqueous phase than NaCl with equal concentrations. (C) 2010 King Saud University.
