Abstract
EMULSIONS of one liquid or gaseous phase in another usually collapse, returning to the initial state, that of two co-existing phases in bulk. Stabilisation, however, may be obtained by adding an emulsifyer, capable of forming films around the particles which inhibit the exchange of molecules between the internal and the external phase.
