Phase behaviour of hydrated monoolein as influenced by GDN concentration and by temperature. Phase identification was based on SAXS measurements recorded in the heating direction from 23 to 40°C (red arrow) and in the cooling direction from 23 to 0°C (blue arrow). Samples were prepared with monoolein and aqueous GDN solutions in a 3/2 weight ratio. The dashed horizontal line identifies ambient temperature, 23°C. |
