We have synthesized a low-molecular-mass organogelator: cyclohexane carboxamido (HPMDA-R), which is composed of four amide groups with two kinds of side chains (R and R'). These chains have different alkyl groups: 2-ethylhexyl (2C8) and oleyl, which are effective to increase solubility and the formation of the structure by self-assembly after the dissolution. In this study, we evaluated rheological properties of HPMDA-2C8/oleyl for paraffin oil and ester oils. From the results, HPMDA-2C8/oleyl contributed to increase the viscosity and viscoelasticity of isododecane, while to give gelation state for isostearyl isostearate.
