摘要
The effect of added salt on the three-phase behavior in a microemulsion system was investigated in a brine lag. NaCl/sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)/hexanol/dodecane system at 25 degrees C. Phase equilibrium was analyzed assuming that (1) most of the SDS molecules are at micro water-oil interfaces inside a microemulsion phase, (2) hexanol is distributed to micro-oil domains inside a microemulsion and the micro water-oil interfaces, and (3) in excess oil phase of the three-phase body, the solubility of hexanol is equal to that in micro-oil domains inside the single-phase microemulsion. The minimum concentration of mixed surfactant (SDS + hexanol) required to solubilize equal weights of water and oil in single-phase decreases with increasing salinity. The remarkable increase in solubilization at higher salinities is mainly due to the decrease in the solubility of hexanol in oil. Inside the microemulsion phase, the solubility in oil is very high and only a small portion of added hexanol forms the mixed layer with SDS molecules at low salinity. Hence, hexanol acts as a polar oil rather thane cosurfactant at low salinity.
