Spontaneous transformation from micelles to vesicles associated with sequential conversions of comprising amphiphiles within assemblies

Abstract

A morphological transformation from hybrid micelles to giant vesicles was observed in aqueous dispersion associated with formation of a double-chained amphiphile as a result of the migration of dodecylamine from the amphiphilic imine to the amphiphilic aldehyde within the hydrophobic environment of amphiphilic aggregates.
