Abstract This paper aims to fabricate new superhydrophobic nanocomposite coating materials protect the inner surfaces of petroleum pipelines from corrosion. The batch emulsification polymerization technique (BEM) was used as a facial eco-friendly prepare three hydrophobic (styrene/vinyl acetate) copolymers. sol–gel method SiO 2 nanoparticles (SiO -NPs) with average size ranging 90 101 nm. funct...

background and objectives: biosurfactants are surface active agents with broad range commercial applications in various industries and have considerable advantages over their chemical counterparts. materials and methods: in this study, bacteria were isolated from contaminated and uncontaminated soil and selected during preliminary screening using hemolytic activity, oil spreading and oil collap...

Omega-3 rich fish oils are extremely labile, thus requiring control of oxidation and off flavor development. A recently proposed emulsification method, layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition, was found to be a plausible method to enhance the characteristics of bioactive ingredients, especially lipids. The present work was designed to test the possibility of enhancing the uptake and utilization of omeg...

The high throughput preparation of emulsions with high internal volume fractions is important for many different applications, e.g., drug delivery. However, most emulsification techniques reach only low internal volume fractions and need stable flow rates that are often difficult to control. Here, we present a centrifugal high throughput step emulsification disk for the fast and easy production...
