Abstract
The mixture of polyisoprene with sodium-2-diethylhexyl sulfosuccinate (AOT)/H2O/cyclohexane microemulsion is studied with the photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS) and small angel X-ray scattering (SAXS). The water with AOT induces nano-droplets inside the cyclohexane and addition of concentration and length scale of polyisoprene (PI) can change diffusion of nano-droplets. The collective diffusion coefficient (Dc) of nano-droplets decreased with increase in concentration of PI. From SAXS experiment, a spherical–cylindrical transition of nano-droplets by increase in polyisoprene concentrations observed that it can describe behaviour of diffusion.
