Abstract

Aqueous high internal phase volume ratio (O/W 90/10) Janus emulsions of a vegetable oil and a silicone fluid were prepared in a single step emulsification by the common vibrator equipment. The basis for the unique structure is discussed in relation to pair-wise interactions between the components with especial emphasis on the surfactant concentration in the aqueous phase.
