متن کاملThree-dimensional structure and growth of myelins.
After contact with water, surfactant lamellar phases (L(α)) can show spectacular interface instabilities: multibilayer tubules, so-called myelins, grow from the L(α)/water interface into the water. We have studied the shape, size, and growth of myelins in aqueous solutions of the nonionic surfactant C(12)E(3) (triethylene glycol monododecyl ether) during dissolution. We used a combination of di...
