The phase behavior of mixtures of water, octane, n -alkyl polyglycol ethers (C i E j ), and n -alkyl β- d -glucopyranosides (C m G 1 ) is systematically studied as a function of temperature and composition. The addition of C m G 1 to water−octane−C i E j mixtures promotes formation of a three-phase region that is nearly independent of temperature in all mixtures studied. The size and extent of this three-phase region are shown as a function of C m G 1 concentration and hydrophobicity and C i E j amphiphilicity. This unique behavior arises from the extremely low oil solubility of the alkyl monoglucosides.
