Microchannel Processing: A Novel Approach to Making Emulsions

In the present article, microchannel emulsification is explored as a process method that precisely adds a dispersed phase into a continuous phase through an engineered dispersion plate. This approach is shown to produce emulsions with smaller droplets having tighter size distributions than conventional means, which leads to stable products with the limited need, if any, for surfactants.

Naturally Inhibit Fragrance Degradation: Rice Bran Sterols in Emulsions

The use of phytosterols is proposed here to retard the deterioration of cosmetic emulsions caused by perfume degradation. For the described tests, phytosterols from crude rice bran oil, a natural and economic choice, were used. A simple and easily controlled technique is described through which the phytosterols provided the desired results.

Researchers Suggest New Way to Look at Manufacturing Emulsions

Researchers at Harvard's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have discovered that stabilized emulsions may take months to years to reach equilibrium. This research has important implications for the manufacturing processes used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and foods, among other chemical industries.

Uniquely Stable Emulsions Revealed Through Freeze-fracture Transmission Electron Microscopy

Researchers investigated the structures and features of emulsions made with different emulsifiers via freeze-fracture transmission electron microscopy. Potassium cetyl phosphate formed more multi-lamellar spheres than other emulsifiers, and aggregated homo-domains on top of lamellar sheet surfaces and multi-lamellar spheres. These homo-domains are likely to be responsible for the excellent emulsion stability achieved.

The Effects of Showering Too Often, Too Hot and Too Long

This article is about something that anyone with teenage children will recognize: the fact that while you cannot get pre-teens to go into the shower, you cannot get teenagers out of the shower. However, when their showering is too often, too hot and too long, they are steam-stripping their skin.
