Investigation of the PIT emulsification mechanism by NIR and conductometry

This work studied the dynamics of emulsions under a Phase Inversion Transition containing and not containing the liquid crystal phase. In the experimental routine, emulsions were subjected to cycles of heating and cooling in accordance with specified protocol, crossing the phase inversion temperature (PIT) twice at each experiment. Properties of the transient emulsions were monitored by in situ near infrared spectroscopy (NIR) and conductometry....
