Effect of Ethylene Glycol on Solubilization of Water in Perchloroethylene Solutione Solution of Aerosol OT

Abstract

The effect of ethylene glycol (E.G.) on solubilization of water in perchloroethylene of Aerosol OT was investigated. The amount of solubilization was determined by means of turbidity.
The main results obtained were as follows :
1) By adding E.G. in water, the maximum amount of solubilization increased linearly with increase of the concentration of the surfactant as well as in case of water.
2) The maximum amount of solubilization of E.G.-water system increased with increase of the amount of E.G. in water.
