In self-emulsification higher-energy micrometre and sub-micrometre oil droplets are spontaneously produced from larger ones and only a few such methods are known. They usually involve a one-time reduction in oil solubility in the continuous medium via changing temperature or solvents or a phase inversion in which the preferred curvature of the interfacial surfactant layer changes its sign. Here...

PURPOSE Polymeric porous foams have been evaluated as possible new pharmaceutical dosage forms. METHODS These materials were obtained by polymerization in the continuous phase of highly concentrated emulsions prepared by the phase inversion temperature method. Their porosity, specific surface and surface topography were characterized, and the incorporation and release of active principles was...

an infinitely long hollow cylinder containing isotropic linear elastic material is considered under the effect of arbitrary boundary stress and thermal condition. the two-dimensional coupled thermoelastodynamic pdes are specified based on equations of motion and energy equation, which are uncoupled using nowacki potential functions. the laplace integral transform and bessel-fourier series are u...

introduction air pollution as one of the most important technological risks of contemporary era is mainly resulted from the emergence of large cities and fast growing industries. one of the main objectives of climatic and environmental studies is to survey atmospheric pollutions. tabriz is one of the metropolises where air pollution is a problem in it. of course, what is essential regarding the...

The near-surface atmosphere of the polar region is characterized by temperature inversions throughout most of the year. However, radiosonde data are sparse, and numerical weather prediction models have relatively poor vertical resolution for boundary layer studies. A method is developed for detecting and estimating the characteristics of clear-sky, low-level temperature inversions using the Mod...

The paper presents the results of a study effect temperature and relative humidity environment on structure microporous films copolymer P(VDF-TrFE) obtained by phase-inversion method. It is shown that with increasing pore size film increases, while leads to their reduction. optimal range external environmental conditions for obtaining porous honeycomb pattern proposed. influence different solve...

Nanoemulsions are submicron sized emulsions that are under investigation as drug carriers for improving the delivery of therapeutic agents. These are the thermodynamically stable isotropic system in which two immiscible liquids are mixed to form a single phase by means of appropriate surfactant and cosurfactant. Nanoemulsion droplet sizes fall typically in the range of 20200nm and shows narrow ...

in this work, we have calculated the joule-thomson inversion curve of two important associating fluids, namely water and methanol, from the saft equation of state. comparisons with the available experimental data, for water and methanol indicate that this molecular based equation of state gives good prediction of the low temperature branch; but, unfortunately, due to lack of isenthalpic data fo...

Beverage emulsions are systems that are composed of two liquids including oil and water which are prepared by homogenizing oil phase in an acidic aqueous phase. They must be stable in both concentrated and diluted form for a period of 6-12 months upon standing at room temperature. Two immiscible phases contained systems are thermodynamically unsta-ble. In other words, they are vulnerable to bre...

A novel numerical method for solving inverse scattering problem with fixed-energy data is proposed. The method contains a new important concept: the stability index of the inversion problem. This is a number, computed from the data, which shows how stable the inversion is. If this index is small, then the inversion provides a set of potentials which differ so little, that practically one can re...
