A simple and effective method for the formation of stable multilamellar vesicles is reported as a potential application of ionic liquid materials (IL’s) and as replacements for conventional surfactants used in such applications. The methodology is based on the various approaches for the formation of vesicles from oppositely charged surfactants. Photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) have been used to estimate the size of the aggregates; the TEM studies have also revealed morphological differences in the self-assembled systems with changing ionic liquid material. Size measurements from PCS indicate consistent growth of the ionic-liquid containing vesicles with increasing concentration of added anionic surfactant. 2D NOESY NMR spectroscopy have been used to examine the manner in which IL amphiphile self-assembles with the second surfactant in solution. A comparison has been made between the aggregates formed from hexylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate ([HexPy][BF4-])/sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and hexylpyridinium bromide ([HexPy][Br])/sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS).
