Sugar glasses

Form a sugar glass, using 3 1 sucrose to raffinose, and blend in the liquid. 

Barium hydroxide (hydrate) [Ba(OH)2] exists in several forms and has many uses in oil and grease additives, water treatment, vulcanization of rubber, and the manufacture of soaps, beet sugar, glass, and steel. 

Glassy materials are common in a number of areas, both natural and man-made. The humble boiled sweet is an example of a sugar glass (Figure 6.1).

Water is not a necessary element for self-assembly, which requires only two immiscible components and a suitable amphiphile. Self-assembly in non-aqueous systems could be fluid-like as in the case of RTIL and non-aqueous polar solvents, or solid-like as in polymer blends and sugar glasses. Expanding the realm of self-assembly and complex fluids to non-aqueous systems, and in particular, to the solid state holds great promise in revolutionising several commercial encapsulation, polymerisation, membrane and optical technologies.
