AB  - In a recent publication, my group discussed a directive second order parameter that hypothetically could form micrometer large structures that influence the rheological behavior of a bicontinuous microemulsion. For this, the viscosities of two microemulsions with the non-ionic surfactants C10E4 and C8E3 were determined over the wide frequency and shear rate range. Contrarily to our previous publications there are no elevated viscosities towards slowest motions of the rheometer. Thus, no micrometer large structures form in microemulsions. However, we argue and confirm that there are compartments with the size of several correlation lengths. This finding supports the development of a directional order parameter in microemulsions.
