PICKERING EMULSION TECHNOLOGY IN FABRICATE CELLULOSE FOAM FROM OILPALM EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH WASTE. Cellulose from the oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) waste can make a porous material. This study aims to cellulose foam with Pickering emulsion technology used nanofiber as agent. The mechanism of is learned foamability and stability in presence various concentrations surfactant. result showed that...

Pickering emulsions differ from classical emulsions, because the first are stabilized by solid particles instead of surfactants. This type of emulsions has been widely investigated in pharmaceutical and cosmetic fields since they present less adverse effects than the classical emulsions that are stabilized by surfactants. The present study was conducted in order to characterize physically and c...

This work describes a strategy to mitigate the undesirable transport of small molecules among aqueous droplets immersed in fluorinated oil by replacing surfactant molecules with nanoparticles as emulsion stabilizers (Pickering emulsions). Amphiphilic silica particles were synthesized and redispersed in fluorinated solvents, and monodispersed picoliter aqueous drops were generated from flow-focu...

[To my family for their love and support] iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are many people I would like to thank for their support throughout my Ph.D. study at Georgia Tech. I would like first express my tons of gratitude to my advisor Dr. Behrens for his invaluable support that I will remember for ever. I will remember his great guidance whenever I encounter a problem in my thesis work; I will rememb...

The manufacturing of stable emulsion is a very important challenge for the cosmetic industry, which has motivated intense research activity replacing conventional molecular stabilizers with colloidal particles. These allow minimizing hazards and risks associated use stabilizers, providing enhanced stability to obtained dispersions. Therefore, particle-stabilized emulsions (Pickering emulsions) ...

A Pickering emulsion based on sodium starch octenyl succinate (SSOS) was prepared and its effects the physicochemical properties of hairtail myofibrillar protein gels (MPGs) subjected to multiple freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles were investigated. The whiteness, water-holding capacity, storage modulus (G') texture MPGs significantly improved by adding 1%-2% (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, Raman spectr...

The rational design of drug delivery systems has led to enhanced targeting, increased efficiency, and a reduction side effects in chemotherapies vaccines. As most biological reactions took place at the interface, particle-stabilized emulsion (Pickering emulsion), may offer major implications for advanced loading, delivery, controlled release. In fact, it is aggregating particles that determined...
