微通道乳化法制备单分散W/O型乳状液及液滴形成特性的影响因素

    Effect factors of monodispersed water-in-oil emulsions prepared by microchannel emulsification method

    • 摘要: 该文提出了树脂微通道乳化法生产单分散的油包水(W/O)型乳状液,研究了分散相压力、连续相黏度、乳化剂种类对乳状液生成特性的影响。结果表明,在液滴稳定形成压力范围内,随着分散相压力的提高,平均粒径增大,变动系数增大但小于10%,低于临界压力Pmin和高于临界压力Pmax,无法形成单分散的乳状液;连续相黏度越大,生成的乳状液粒径越大,变动系数越高;所使用的乳化剂中,聚甘油多聚蓖麻醇酸酯适合生产单分散的W/O型乳状液,生成的乳状液粒径42~60 μm,变动系数10%以下;使用甘油单油酸酯、磷脂类乳化剂时,虽然能形成液滴但很快发生凝集、聚合现象;当使用蛋白质类乳化剂时,基板被润湿,分散相连续流出不形成液滴,单分散的油包水型乳状液无法形成。

       

      Abstract: The authors prepared mono-dispersed water-in-oil emulsions by polymer microchannel(MC) emulsification method, and investigated the effects of various parameters on preparation characteristics of the emulsion. Results show that the pressure of the dispersed phase, viscosity of the continuous phase, and type of emulsifier affect significantly the preparation characteristics of the emulsion. Average droplet diameter and coefficient of variation(CV, less than 10%) increase as the pressure of the dispersed phase increases in pressure ranges for stable droplet formation, and when the pressure of the dispersed phase are more than critical pressure Pmax or less than critical pressure Pmin, the mono-dispersed emulsions are not created. Average droplet diameter and CV increase with the increasing viscosity in the continuous phase. On the other hand, mono-dispersed water-in-oil emulsions with average droplet diameters of 42 to 60 μm(CV less than 10%) are prepared successfully using tetr-aglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester as the emulsifier, droplets are created from MC, but they flocculated or coalesced immediately when using glycerin monooleate and lecithin as the emulsifiers, the surface of the MC plate is wetted and the dispersed phase flowed out continuously through the MC when using proteins as the emulsifiers.
