Micellization in glycerol:choline chloride deep eutectic solvent

DOI

Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are molecular mixtures with melting points below room temperature. DES share many features of ionic liquids (low vapour pressure, adjustable polarity etc) which make them interesting as green solvents while being far less toxic. Recently we studied sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) in the most common DES, choline chloride:urea where an unusual rod-to-sphere transition was observed with increasing SDS concentration. Cationic, nonionic and zwitterionic surfactants were however only sparingly soluble in the Urea DES close to their cmcs. We now wish to continue our micellization studies in a lower viscosity, choline chloride:glycerol DES which solubilizes the full range of surfactant species, to determine how this solvent differs from water & the Urea DES and, using contrast variation, the detailed structures of surfactant micelles in this solvent.
