To prepare a stable emulsion, an emulsifier must be added that facilitates emulsification of the two immiscible phases and promotes stability. |
Since lecithin acts as an emulsifier, it will make whatever you mix it with smoother and creamier. |
Bitumen emulsions are a dispersion of bitumen in an aqueous continuous phase, stabilised by the addition of an emulsifier. |
Thus, the selection of the emulsifier used in the preparation of bitumen emulsions is a critical factor in road making applications. |
Special fats which incorporate an emulsifier, usually glyceryl monostearate, are available to the commercial baker. |
The ability with which an emulsion wets a surface is dependent on the type of emulsifier used, and these can be anionic, cationic, or non-ionic. |
