Emulsifiers

Emulsifiers are powdery or viscous liquids that are specially required for stabilizing emulsions by increasing their kinetic stability. They are available in both oil & water soluble forms as specifically required by clients according to need. These solutions find application in food processing, pharmaceuticals, plastic, and chemical industries. They have a polar & a non-polar part which provides characteristic property to them. Emulsifiers are also considered to be surface active agents that work by reducing interfacial tensions between two phases. They are also known to have ability to improve viscosity of medium that maintains globules of dispersed phase in suspension.
