| Description | This chapter highlights the use of the microemulsion method for the synthesis of a variety of nanostructured material. It explores the use of different techniques, such as FCS and Small Angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) to understand nanoparticle formation using microemulsion. Depending on the proportion of the components used and the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance of the surfactant, these microemulsions can be either water-in-oil type or oil-in-water type. Synthesis in microemulsions is mostly carried out in a water-in-oil type of microemulsion. These contain reverse micelles, which are a type of surfactant aggregate, wherein the core of the reverse micelles is composed of an aqueous phase. The main advantage of carrying out the reaction in microemulsions is that the size of the particles can be easily controlled as their growth is inhibited after nucleation. The number of microemulsion systems and the ratio of the volume of the microemulsion involved can be varied depending on the composition and the stoichiometry of the product.
