Abstract

The ternary-pseudo phase diagram for toluene, water and 2-propanol has been constructed from conductivity measurements. Several structured regions have been identified and region boundaries confirmed by carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Prominent among the structured pseudo-phases is a region of water dispersed microemulsions. Preliminary light scattering data suggest a droplet diameter of 50–300 Å.
