Effect of alcohols on water solubilization in surfactant-free diesel microemulsions

Microemulsions are preferred over other methods of mixing two immiscible liquids as they are thermodynamically stable, but require a high percentage of surfactant. Surfactant-free microemulsions, on the other hand, use an amphisolvent instead of surfactants, making them an economical alternative. Th...
