Synopsis

Industrial Applications of Nanoemulsion presents information about the fundamentals and applications of nanoemulsions. This important reference source for those working in the development of nanoemulsions for various applications in chemical, agricultural and engineering fields provides information on a wide range of applications in the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. These nanoemulsions are made by mixing two immiscible liquids (water and oil) and suitable stabilizing agents (surfactant and co-surfactant), hence their development requires a particular set of details.

• Highlights the basics of the nanoemulsion process and the role of the components of emulsion
• Explores methodologies to make nanoemulsions on a commercial scale
• Shows how effectively various forms of nanoemulsion can be used in making formulations for different industries
