Abstract

We demonstrated the existence of lecithin organogel at 20°C in a system containing the following components: phospholipid mixture with 40 wt % of phosphatidylcholine, hydrocarbon (vaseline) oil, and water, at phosphatidylcholine concentrations above 1.2 wt % and in the range of W = [H2O]/[lec] values varying from 3.25 to 7.0. The dependences of the viscosity of lecithin organogels in a hydrocarbon oil on water and lecithin concentrations, as well as on temperature were established.
