Various phase behaviors including viscoelastic solutions, aqueous surfactant two‐phase systems (ASTPs), aqueous surfactant three‐phase system (AS3Ps), and anisotropic homogeneous phases were formed in a catanionic system, which was dominated by a bio‐based anionic surfactant containing a tricyclic hydrophenantnene skeleton. Rich aggregates including threadlike micelles, annular micelles, wormlike micelles, and sponge‐like micelles were formed in different phases. More information can be found in the Full Paper by X. Rao et al. on page 9033.
