Abstract

An emulsion is a colloidal dispersion of liquid droplets in another liquid phase. Often this colloidal dispersion is complex because the dispersed phase is partially solidified or because the continuous phase contains crystalline material. All emulsions have in common that they are (thermodynamically) unstable.
