Lecithin reverse wormlike micelles (LRWs) have been studied recently for dermal application dosage use but the effects of the physicochemical properties of oils on the formation and rheological properties of LRWs have not been investigated. We studied the effect of oil on the formation of LRWs using 5 types of liquid paraffin (LP) with kinematic viscosities ranging from 4.00 to 88.0 mm 2 /s. Partial phase diagrams of lecithin/water/LP systems indicated that LPs with low molecular weights could form LRWs with only a small amount of water, but LPs with high molecular weights could not form LRWs, regardless of the water concentration. The solubility of lecithin in LPs was higher for low molecular weight LPs, thus possibly affecting the formation of LRWs. The zero-shear viscosity and relaxation time of LRWs initially increased with increasing water concentration, and then decreased. The water concentration providing the maximum value was dependent on the molecular weight of the LP, whereas the maximum amount and length of the LRWs were independent of the water concentration. Our results indicate that the molecular weight of LP affects the ease of formation and the viscoelasticity of LRWs. |
