On the role of Surfactants in Emulsions and Foams

Puntos clave

• Surfactants significantly enhance the stability of emulsions and foams by reducing interfacial tension.
• Key metrics indicate that the presence of surfactants can increase emulsion stability by improving droplet distribution.
• Observational analysis highlights the diverse applications of surfactants in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
• Understanding surfactant behavior in emulsions and foams supports innovations in product formulation and effectiveness.
