This study sets out to investigate the effect of the presence of small water-soluble additives on the tunability of the surfactant gel-to-liquid crystalline (L-beta-L-alpha) phase transition temperature (T-m) for a bilayer-forming cationic surfactant and the phase behavior of such surfactant systems...
