Oil-in-water Pickering emulsions prepared by food-grade particles have gained increasing interest on account of their potential application in the delivery system for lipophilic active compounds. In this project, hydrolyzed rice glutelin (HRG) nanoparticles were successfully fabricated inducing different concentrations ethanol. The structure, interfacial properties HRG nanoparticles, emulsion s...

I discuss how colloidal particles organize when they are confined by emulsion droplets. In these systems, the interplay between surface tension and interparticle repulsion drives the formation of complex, non-crystalline 3D arrangements. These can be classified into three groups: colloidosomes, or Pickering emulsions, structures that form when particles are bound to the interface of a spherical...

Hybrid latex particles combine the unique properties of inorganic nano/micro with inherent polymers, exhibiting tremendous potential for a variety applications. Recent years have witnessed an increased interest in design and preparation hybrid well-defined size, structure morphology. Due to its simplicity, versatility environmental friendliness, situ (Pickering) emulsion polymerization has been...

In this work, polymerizations of styrene (St) in the presence divinylbenzene (DVB) as a crosslinking agent and sodium 4-vinylbenzenesulfonate (VBS) have been performed Pickering emulsions, using silica nanoparticles (SNps) stabilizing agents ammonium persulfate hydrophilic initiator. oil-in-water emulsions with alkaline continuous phase (pH = 9) at 1, 2, 3 wt% DVB (relative to St), polydisperse...

Pickering emulsions with the use of particles as emulsifiers have been extensively used in scientific research and industrial production due to their edge in biocompatibility and stability compared with traditional emulsions. The control over Pickering emulsion stability and type plays a significant role in these applications. Among the present methods to build controllable Pickering emulsions,...

The development of environmentally friendly waterborne polymeric materials is becoming critical today. In this study, a kind self-healing cellulose nanocrystal/fluorinated polyacrylate based on the reversible photo-induced dimerization coumarin groups was prepared via RAFT-mediated Pickering emulsion polymerization using nanocrystal (CNC) particles modified with light-responsive amphiphilic cop...

‎(St-co-BA) polymer through montmorillonite (MMT) nanocomposite emulsion is prepared by ‎in situ intercalative emulsion polymerization of styrene (St), butyl acrylate (BA) in the ‎presence of organic modified montmorillonite (OMMT) with different OMMT contents (0, ‎‎0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 wt%). The synthetic compounds are characterized by FTIR, XRD. The ‎nanocomposite emulsions are characterize...

Emulsion polymerization reactions constitute complex, nonequilibrium systems in which there is strong interaction between polymers, monomers, and the colloidal structures that mediate the reactions. A novel and general method was sought to monitor emulsion polymerization reactions. Instrumentation and methods were hence developed here to achieve, for the first time, simultaneous monitoring of t...
