This The present study was devoted to
investigate the effect of addition of
cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and lauryl
alcohol (LA) on the formation of o/w microemulsions
from almond- water system. Two techniques were used
in this study, namely electrical conductivity and
hydrodynamic viscosity, which revealed the enhanced
micellization and solubilization of almond oil in water.
This was indicated by the variations of critical micelle
concentration, degree of micelle ionization, and
thermodynamic parameters as a function of oil addition
and temperature.
