Abstract:
A cubic gel precursor comprising:(A) a hydrotrope, (B) an anphiphile capable of forming a cubic liquid crystalline phase, and optionally (C) a solvent, wherein ingredients (A), (B), and (C) are present in mass fractions relative to each other such that 1.0=a+b+c wherein a is the mass fraction of ingredient (A), b is the mass fraction of ingredient (B), and c is the mass fraction of ingredient (C), and wherein 1.0>a>0, 1.0>b>0, 1.0>c&gE;0; and with the proviso that a, b, and c do not fall within a cubic liquid crystalline phase region on a phase diagram representing phase behavior of ingredients (A), (B), and (C).
