Abstract

The mechanisms involved in the formation of high solids content composite polymer–monomer waterborne miniemulsions in a high‐pressure homogenizer were investigated combining experimental results and a mathematical model for the process. It was found that the final droplet size was the result of two consecutive processes: droplet break‐up and coagulation. The final droplet size was determined by the mechanism giving the largest droplet size © 2007 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2008

In continuous mechanical emulsification, disruption and stabilization of droplets determine the resulting droplet size and, thus, the emulsion’s microstructure. Without the need of adding any stabilizer, w/o emulsions provide the possibility of a high viscosity of the continuous phase and, in conseq
