Abstract

Crystallization of n-Hexadecane in emulsion droplets was studied using time-resolved two-dimensional small- and wide-angle x-ray scattering (2D-SAXS-WAXS) and scanning microbeam 2D-SAXS-WAXS. The former method provides us information about both nano- and subnanostructural change, while the latter enables us to obtain local structure in a single crystallized droplet. The result suggests that the type of surfactant effect the crystallization inside the droplets and the crystallization is induced by the oil-water interface.
