Abstract
The public increasingly requests green formulations as a consequence of growing sustainability awareness. This may include glycolipid and lipopeptide biosurfactants (BS), which are considered renewable, biodegradable, and mild alternatives to conventional fossil-based surfactants. For developing green formulations, it is crucial to understand the phase behavior and the resulting physico-chemical characteristics of systems with BS. This is not only necessary for binary systems of BS in water, which have already been frequently studied and reviewed. But it is also important to study combinations with other surfactants and oils due to their higher relevance for applications. For this reason, we review in this article the different types of phase behavior of systems comprising BS, in particular systems with rhamnolipid, sophorolipid, mannosylerythritol lipid, cellobiose lipid, and surfactin.
期刊介绍:
Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international journal that focuses on the molecular and nanoscopic aspects of colloidal systems and interfaces in various scientific and technological fields. These include materials science, biologically-relevant systems, energy and environmental technologies, and industrial applications.
Unlike primary journals, COCIS primarily serves as a guide for researchers, helping them navigate through the vast landscape of recently published literature. It critically analyzes the state of the art, identifies bottlenecks and unsolved issues, and proposes future developments.
Moreover, COCIS emphasizes certain areas and papers that are considered particularly interesting and significant by the Editors and Section Editors. Its goal is to provide valuable insights and updates to the research community in these specialized areas.
