A parametric study on the application of microfluidics for emulsion characterization

This work focuses on the application of a microfluidics system that has capability to produce monodispersed oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions for emulsion formation and stability analysis. Deionized water, aqueous solutions of inorganic salts, and aqueous solutions of surfactants were used as the water phase. N-decane, n-hexadecane, and surfactant solutions of n-decane and n-hexadecane were used as the oil phase. Experimental...
