Abstract

The first attempt to explain the stability of solid stabilized emulsions in a quantitative manner was made by Van der Minne (1) who showed that under thermodynamic equilibrium the adsorption of solid particles at the liquid-liquid interface is governed by its contact angle against the solid, an obtuse contact angle against the solid phase facilitating the stabilization. All subsequent theories on solid stabilised emulsions attributed their stability to the effect of the contact angle. In this connection the work of Schulman and Leja (2) is noteworthy. Albers (3) quantitative formulations of the stability of emulsions of water-in-benzene with basic carbonates and hydroxides of polyvalent metals formed by the hydrolysis of corresponding oleates have also received attention. Other pertinent references are those of the work of King and Mukerjee (4), Lucassen-Reynders (5) and Vold (6). The latest elaborate work on the subject is that of Mukerjee and Srivastava (7ߝ12) and Jain and Srivastava (13).
