Turbulent flow of water in an 1 mm long and 0.4 mm high gap of an emulsifier is investigated experimentally using micro-PIV technique and compared with numerical predictions. The purpose of the investigations is to develop a procedure for well-controlled generation of mono-disperse suspension of micro-droplets. The micro-flow measurements are based on epi-fluorescence illumination and high-spee...

Red palm olein, which is rich in β carotene, has the potential as an animal fat replacer for formulation of healthy processed meat products. However, it mainly composed saturated fatty acid, should be reduced by combining with unsaturated acid-rich vegetable oil. Canola oil was mixed red olein order to get benefits from both. The emulsion gel made up and canola at 30/70 (w/w) optimized using a...

Flexible Janus nanosheets of molecular scale thickness (3.5 nm) are massively fabricated by a sol-gel process of a self-assembled monolayer of an amphiphilic silane onto a template. Groups of both sides are tuneable, and thus performance of the nanosheets, for example, is pH responsive. As a flexible solid emulsifier, the desired species can be wrapped with an individual nanosheet, which is pH ...

Pickering emulsions, emulsions stabilized by solid emulsifiers, offer many opportunities for application in catalysis. Recent advances emulsifier design, type of conversions catalyzed and developments reaction engineering are discussed.

A Box-Behnken design with three replicates was used for preparation and evaluation of Eudragit vancomycin (VCM) nanoparticles prepared by double emulsion. The purpose of this work was to optimize VCM nanoparticles to improve the physicochemical properties. Nanoparticles were formed by using W1/O/W2 double-emulsion solvent evaporation method using Eudragit RS as a retardant material. Full factor...
