An overview on preparation of emulsion-filled gels and emulsion particulate gels

摘要

Background: Emulsion gels are a class of soft solid-like materials. These composite materials are structurally either a polymeric gel matrix into which emulsion droplets are incorporated (emulsion-filled gels), or a network of aggregated emulsion droplets (emulsion particulate gels). Emulsion gels are increasingly used in pharmaceutics, cosmetics and food industries.
