• Catanionic surfactant
• Water intake capacity
• Microemulsion

A systematic study on the water Intake capacity of the microemulsion formed using a catanionic surfactant (synthesized by taking equimolar mixture of acid and amine) with varying hydrocarbon chain length of the acid has been carried out A decrease in the water-intake capacity with increase in the chain length was observed Shorter chain length of co-surfactant (1-butanol compared to 1-octanol) led to higher water-Intake capacity of microemulsions which may also be attributed to the high hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) of 1-buatnol Three new microemulsions based on catanionic surfactants have been
