phase inversion in liquid-liquid dispersions corresponds to the transitional boundary between oil-in-aqueous dispersion and aqueous-in-oil dispersion. a theoretical model based on simple assumptions was proposed to predict phase inversion point, ambivalence region and the hysteresis effect of inversion. experimental data from the literature were used to validate the model and results were compa...

Over the last decade, nanoemulsion-based delivery systems have been gained interest in the pharmaceuticals1-4, food and beverage5-8, cosmetics9-11, agrochemicals12-14 and other15 industries. The main purposes are to encapsulate, protect, and deliver lipophilic components such as drugs, vitamins, food supplements, antioxidants, antimicrobials, pesticides. In general, it is desirable to utilize n...

Phase inversion in liquid-liquid dispersions corresponds to the transitional boundary between Oil-in-Aqueous dispersion and Aqueous-in-Oil dispersion. A theoretical model based on simple assumptions was proposed to predict phase inversion point, ambivalence region and the hysteresis effect of inversion. Experimental data from the literature were used to validate the model and results were c...

Microporous poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membranes were prepared from PVDF/N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC) solutions by using upercritical CO2 phase inversion process. As revealed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), he PVDF membranes exhibit morphological characteristics resulting from both liquid–liquid phase separation and crystallization, i.e.,...

invert sugar is the result of sucrose of hydrolysis of sucrose by acid or enzyme, that is, the splitting of sucrose molecules into their glucose and fructose components.invert sugar is used in different industries such as; food industry, soft drinks and pharmaceutical, due to its special characteristics such as; sweetness level, moisture ability’s property, crystallization level and special tas...

Measurements of the chirality (2 pi/pitch) in the chiral nematic phase and of a structural constant proportional to the chirality in the isotropic liquid for a system in which a helix inversion line crosses the chiral nematic to isotropic phase transition line are reported. While the chirality shows a strong temperature dependence in the chiral nematic phase, it loses all temperature dependence...

Precipitating versions of the quasigeostrophic (QG) equations are derived systematically, starting from the equations of a cloud-resolving model. The presence of phase changes of water from vapor to liquid and vice versa leads to important differences from the dry QG case. The precipitating QG (PQG) equations, in their simplest form, have two variables to describe the full system: a potential v...

A proposal to test the proposed time-reversal and inversion breaking phase in the Pseudogap region of the Cuprate compounds through the variation of Second-harmonic generation intensity with temperature and polarization and angle of incidence is presented.
