More on emulsions
Why do emulsions destabilise in storage?
The most important property of any emulsion system is its stability. several different mechanisms exist by which an unstable emulsified state will seek equilibrium.
How to apply our bio-based emulsion stabilisers
Addition rates range from less than 1% to more than 10%, depending on the internal phase ratio, product, water quality and performance criteria. more than 70% by weight of oil can be used.
