The Comprehensive, Single-Source Reference on Multiple Emulsions
In theory, multiple emulsions have significant potential for
breakthrough applications in food, agricultural, pharmaceutical,
nutraceutical, and cosmetic industries in which they can facilitate
the sustained release and transport of active material. However, in
practice, multiple emulsions are thermodynamically unstable. This
book presents recent findings that can help formulators understand
how to enhance their stability. With chapters contributed by
leading experts from around the world, it covers the definition and
properties of multiple emulsions, their formation and stability,
and potential applications, with an emphasis on medical and
pharmaceutical applications. In one definitive resource, it
presents recent findings and achievements in the field, including:
New theoretical approaches and modeling to characterize the
transport mechanism
Droplet size reduction and increased shelf life stability through
the use of polymeric amphiphiles and complex adducts
The use of new emulsification techniques to enhance the
monodispersibility of the droplets
Potential applications in drug delivery systems where clinical
studies have proven their efficacy
This is a core, hands-on reference for surface and colloid
scientists, physical chemists, chemical engineers, soft materials
scientists, food chemists, controlled release scientists, and
pharmaceutical scientists in drug delivery applications, as well as
for graduate students in these disciplines. The editor and
contributors hope this logical consolidation of current information
will further the understanding of multiple emulsions and lead to
new, practical applications.
