Pickering emulsions stabilize oil‑water mixtures using solid particles instead of surfactants.
Origin: John Pickering (English chemist) (1907) — United Kingdom
See full technique reference →Solid particles adsorb irreversibly at the oil‑water interface, forming a mechanical barrier that resists coalescence. The interfacial film is governed by particle size, surface charge, and hydrophobicity, which together dictate the rheology and kinetic stability of the emulsion.
