Résumé: We report experiments on aqueous foams made of solutions of oligomers of cationic surfactants. The degree of oligomerization is varied up to 4, and two spacer lengths are used. We have studied both the interfacial dilational and shear rheology, the single thin film properties, the foamability of the solutions, as well as the aging and the mechanical properties of the 3D foams. We have found clear differences between the oligomeric systems at all length scales. We then discuss the correlations between the properties at the different length scales and see how the macroscopic features depend on the molecular structure. This work first allows us to determine the relevance of each measurement; in that respect, it stresses the important role of the timescales, and the need to monitor the liquid fraction and bubble size in order to perform correct comparisons. Secondly, this work provides information on how one could optimize foaming properties with oligomers, and the balance between the degree of oligomerization and spacer length.

Résumé: The successive transitions of morphology in aqueous solutions of interacting micelles are directly evidenced by the position q* of the correlation peak of the small angle neutron scattering profiles. As the volume fraction Phi increases, q* successively fits to the dilution laws expected for spheres and cylinders, and eventually gets close to the one expected for sheets when the micelles get branched. Data in between the swelling laws are quantitatively analyzed in terms of aggregation number and junction density. Varying the temperature in the dilute regime yields the end-cap energy which varies with molecular structure and scales as Phi(-1/2). In the semidilute regime, the junction density scales as nu(j) similar to Phi(1.8), close but slightly faster than theoretically expected. The boosting effect of intermicellar repulsion on growth and branching is pointed out by the present results which directly show that both condensation processes keep the micelles further apart.
