Emulsiointiin
Emulsiointiin is a proposed class of emulsification methods in colloid and interface science that aims to produce highly stable, tunable emulsions by coupling interfacial design with controlled phase changes at the droplet surface. In this framework, stabilizing agents form adaptive networks at the oil–water interface, enabling precise control over droplet size, coalescence resistance, and rheology of the emulsion.
Concept and principles: The approach relies on dynamic interfacial structures created by stimuli-responsive polymers, nanoparticles, or
Methods and materials: Typical formulations use an oil phase dispersed in an aqueous phase with amphiphilic
Applications: Potential uses span pharmaceutical delivery systems with programmable release, cosmetics and personal care emulsions with
Challenges and outlook: The field faces reproducibility, scale-up, and regulatory considerations for new stabilizers. Characterization of
Related concepts include conventional emulsions, Pickering emulsions, interfacial rheology, and stimuli-responsive materials.
