Addition of n‐decanol at appropriate concentrations is beneficial to increasing the solubilization amount of water in a water‐in‐oil microemulsion in the system of nonylphenol ethoxylate/olive oil/water, but it destabilized the lamellar liquid crystal and reduced the solubilization of olive oil in the lamellar liquid crystal.
