2. Polysorbate 80 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polysorbate_80

   Polysorbate 80 is a surfactant and solubilizer used in a variety of oral and topical pharmaceutical products.. Polysorbate 80 is also an excipient that is used to stabilize aqueous formulations of medications for parenteral administration, and used as an emulsifier in the making of the antiarrhythmic amiodarone.

3. Emulsion stabilization using polyelectrolytes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emulsion_stabilization...

   The two main types of emulsions are oil-in-water (nonpolar in polar) and water-in-oil (polar in nonpolar). The difference depends upon the nature of the surfactant or polyelectrolyte in question. The hydrophilic pieces will attract the polar solvent, creating a water-in-oil emulsion and the hydrophobic pieces will attract the nonpolar solvent ...

4. Polyvinyl alcohol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinyl_alcohol

   Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH, PVA, or PVAl) is a water-soluble synthetic polymer. It has the idealized formula [CH 2 CH(OH)] n. It is used in papermaking, textile warp sizing, as a thickener and emulsion stabilizer in polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) adhesive formulations, in a variety of coatings, and 3D printing. It is colourless (white) and odorless.

5. Guar gum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guar_gum

   Guar gums are preferred as thickeners for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Guar gum and its derivatives account for most of the gelled fracturing fluids. Guar is more water-soluble than other gums, and it is also a better emulsifier, because it has more galactose branch points. Guar gum shows high low-shear viscosity, but it is strongly shear-thinning.

6. Emulsion polymerization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emulsion_polymerization

   The final product is a dispersion of polymer particles in water. It can also be known as a polymer colloid, a latex, or commonly and inaccurately as an 'emulsion'. Smith-Ewart theory does not predict the specific polymerization behavior when the monomer is somewhat water-soluble, like methyl methacrylate or vinyl acetate.

7. Sodium silicate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_silicate

   Sodium silicates are colorless glassy or crystalline solids, or white powders. Except for the most silicon-rich ones, they are readily soluble in water, producing alkaline solutions. [citation needed] When dried up it still can be rehydrated in water. [16] Sodium silicates are stable in neutral and alkaline solutions.
