    Abstract:
    During the past decade, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have shown promising application in the self-assembly of surfactants. Various aggregates such as micelles, vesicles, lyotropic liquid crystals, microemulsions and gels have been reported. In this research, the phase behaviours of imidazolium surface active ionic liquids (SAILs) CnmimBr (n = 12, 14, 16) were investigated in ChG. With the help of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), the types and structure parameters of aggregates were determined. The molecular packing of SAILs was influenced by the solvophobic chain length, surfactant concentration, temperature and solvent, accounting for their different aggregation behaviours. This study would give a good description of the molecular packing of surfactants in DESs.
