Emulsions occur either as end products or during the processing of products in various areas, including the food, agrochemical, pharmaceutical, paint & oil industries. Despite over one hundred years of research in the subject, however, a quantitative understanding of emulsions has been lacking. Modern Aspects of Emulsion Science presents a comprehensive description of the scientific principles in the field & the very latest advances in research in this important area of surface & colloid science. Topics covered include emulsion formation, type, stability (creaming, flocculation, ripening, coalescence), monodisperse & gel emulsions, & applications. Emphasis has been placed on relating the chemistry of the surfactant or protein adsorbed at the oil-water interface to the principles of the physics involved in the bulk emulsion property. The book has been written by leading experts in the field & covers both experimental & theoretical approaches. The only book in print on this topic, it will prove essential reading for graduate students & researchers in industry. Contents: Emulsions - Recent Advances in Understanding.- Emulsion Formation.- Emulsion Formation by Nucleation & Growth Mechanisms.- Emulsion Flocculation & Creaming.- Rheology of Emulsions - The Relationship to Structure & Stability.- Phase Inversion & Drop Formation in Agitated Liquid-Liquid Dispersions in the Presence of Nonionic Surfactants.- Coalescence in Emulsions.- Lifetime & Destruction of Concentrated Emulsions Undergoing Coalescence.- Molecular Diffusion in Emulsions & Emulsion Mixtures.- Interactions & Macroscopic Properties of Emulsions & Microemulsions.- Gel Emulsions - Relationship between Phase Behaviour & Formation.- Applications of Emulsions.- Subject Index.

Emulsions occur either as end products or during the processing of products in a huge range of areas including the food, agrochemical, pharmaceuticals, paints and oil industries. As end products, emulsions allow to avoid organic solvent in processing hydrophobic coatings. Emulsion technology is a suitable approach to vehicle viscous phases. It is also a remarkable mean of targeting actives or capturing specific species. The range of applications of emulsions progresses and their manufacturing becomes more and more sophisticated. Besides this broad domain of technological interest, emulsions are raising a variety of fundamental questions at the frontier between physic and chem istry. Indeed, as a class of soft colloidal materials, emulsions science is linked to various aspects of these disciplines: phase transitions, surface forces and wetting, metastability and hydrodynamic instabilities, mechanical properties and flow. The aim of this book is to review the main important concepts governing emulsion science. In Chapter 2, repulsive interactions between liquid films are discussed as well as adhesive interaction related to wetting. In Chap ter 3, consequences of weak and strong attractions are presented, related to the well accepted liquid solid transition analogy. In Chapter 4, the basics of both bulk compressibility and shear elasticity are presented, the role of disorder being the most important aspect of the elastic behavior of these soft systems. In Chapter 5 the central question of the emulsion lifetime related to metastability is discussed.

Emulsions: Structure, Stability and Interactions is the perfect handbook for scientists looking to obtain up-to-date knowledge about the fundamentals of emulsion science, and those looking to familiarize themselves with the subject in greater detail. As a 'stand-alone' source of information, it is also ideal for solving the practical issues encountered daily in the field of emulsion science. While each chapter presents a concise review on a specific topic, the book offers a consistent presentation of the important physical concepts relevant to emulsions. Some of the topics covered include statistical mechanics of fluid interfaces, the structure of fluid interfaces determined by neutron scattering, hydrodynamic interactions and stability of emulsion films, theory of emulsion flocculation, coalescence kinetics of Brownian emulsions, and Brownian dynamics simulation of emulsion stability. - Full and comprehensive presentations - Rigorous approach to each topic, providing in-depth information - Acts as a 'stand-alone' source of information

Industrialists developing new food and pharmaceutical products face the challenge of innovation in an increasingly competitive market that must consider incredient cost, product added-value, expectations of a healthy life-style, improved sensory impact, controlled delivery of active compounds and last, but not lease, product stability. While much work has been done to explore, understand, and address these issues, a gap has emerged between recent advances in fundamental knowledge and its direct application to product situations with a growing need for scientific input.Modern Biopolymer Science matches science to application by first acknowledging the differing viewpoints between those working with low-solids and those working with high-solids, and then sharing the expertise of those two camps under a unified framework of materials science. - Real-world utilisation of fundamental science to achieve breakthroughs in product development - Includes a wide range of related aspects of low and high-solids systems for foods and pharmaceuticals - Covers more than bio-olymer science in foods by including biopolymer interactions with bioactive compounds, issues of importance in drug delivery and medicinal chemistry
