Abstract
Due to the increasing applicability of ionic liquids (ILs) as different components of microemulsions (as the polar liquid, the oil phase, and the surfactant), it would be advantageous to devise a strategy by which we can formulate a microemulsion of our own interest. In this paper, we have shown how we can replace water from water-in-oil microemulsions by ILs to produce IL-in-oil microemulsions. We have synthesized AOT-derived surface-active ionic liquids (SAILs) which can be used to produce a large number of IL-in-oil microemulsions. In particular, we have characterized the phase diagram of the [C(4)mim][BF(4)]/[C(4)mim][AOT]/benzene ternary system at 298 K. We have shown the formation of IL-in-oil microemulsions using the dynamic light scattering (DLS) technique and using methyl orange (MO), betaine 30, and coumarin-480 (C-480) as probe molecules.
