Abstract A kinetic study was carried out on the aminolysis of p-nitrophenyl acetate (NPA) by n-decylamine (DEC), piperazine (PIP) and sarcosine (SAR) in AOT/isooctane/water (w/o) microemulsions. By using the pseudophase model both the rate constants at the interface, equation image, and the water microdroplet, equation image, can be obtained. The obtained results show that equation image increases together with the water content of the ...
