Changes in viscosity behavior from a normal organogelator to a heat-induced gelator for a long-chain amidoamine derivative.
A long-chain amidoamine derivative (C18AA) acts as a normal organogelator in toluene, but changes to a heat-induced gelator, exhibiting a phase transition from sol to gel on heating upon addition of aqueous LiCl to the toluene gel. The thermal response of the heat-induced gel of C18AA was highly sensitive.
