Popis: We present results from a small-angle neutron scattering study of shear-aligned viscoelastic reverse micellar solutions of lecithin in isooctane. We obtain direct evidence for the presence of cylindrical reverse micelles and a water-induced anisotropic growth in these solutions. A substantial increase of the micellar contour length L with increasing water to lecithin molar ratio w 0 can be observed
