Using emulsion particle size distribution to optimize emulsion manufacturing processes

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6356805
Emulsion particle size distribution can be used in emulsion process optimization studies, when the measurement of emulsion physical properties such as viscosity, are not sensitive enough to changes in process variables such as homogenization pressure. A photomicrographic method for determining emulsion particle size distribution is presented. It is demonstrated how trends in the particle size distribution with changing processing variables can be used to help optimize emulsion manufacturing processes.
