Emulsification yield related to formulation and composition variables as well as stirring energy*

Abstract The emulsification yield, i. e., the reduction of drop size when a surfactant-oil-water system is stirred, can be altered by changing: 1) the physicochemical formulation variables which are linked to the nature of the water, oil, and emulsifier, 2) the composition variables [surfactant conc...
