Fabrication and characterization of emulsions with pH responsive switchable behavior
We report the fabrication of emulsions with a pH responsive switchable property. Emulsions stabilized using two biopolymers (xanthan gum and shellac) showed immediate destabilization (flocculation without coalescence) at acidic pH but switched back to the stable state when the pH was neutralized.To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry
