The ability to 3-D print liquid inks and soft materials—such as polymers, colloidal solutions, and even living cells—is useful for tissue engineering, prosthetics, and medical applications. A new oil ...

Wastewater from many industries, restaurants, and households, contains stable oil-water emulsions that are challenging to break apart. Membranes can do this separation without using chemicals or large ...

Industrial wastewater treatment remains a complex and evolving challenge, particularly when it comes to the removal of ...

A solar emulsion evaporator built with graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes adapts to oil, salt, and microbes, maintaining clean water production in harsh conditions. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Freshwater ...

From a technical standpoint, conventional emulsions can be understood as oil-in-water emulsions, whereby the continuous phase is water. Inverse emulsions are the opposite, for example, water-in-oil ...

Research by Saudi Arabian Basic Industries Corp. (SABIC) shows that colloid chemistry analytical tools combined with advanced analytics enable clearer understanding of the emulsion properties.
