Protic ionic liquids: physicochemical properties and behavior as amphiphile self-assembly solvents
Article Abstract:
The physicochemical properties of protic ionic liquids (PILs) and protic molten salts and the self-assembly behavior of amphiphiles in the PILs are analyzed. High-throughput polarized optical microscopy is used for identifying lamellar, hexagonal and bicontinuous cubic amphiphile self-assembly phases and the presence and extent of amphiphile self-assembly are discussed in terms of the Gordon parameter.

Synthesis and stabilization of nanocrystalline zirconia with MSU mesostructure
Article Abstract:
Mesostructure were synthesized by a novel solid-state reaction route, in the presence of nonionic block-copolymer surfactant. The zirconia particles possess a nanocrystalline pore wall, which renders higher stability compared to an amorphous framework.
