Kinetics of demulsification of food protein-stabilized oil-in-water emulsions

Abstract

Demulsification of food protein stabilized oil-in-water emulsions was determined as a function of time. Demulsification conformed to the empirical equation q′-Q t/(B+t), where q′ is the increase in moisture content of the down layer of emulsions at time t, Q is the maximum increase in moisture content, and B is the time required to gain Q/2. Emulsions separate water according to a second order rate law, which would indicate that flocculation is the rate determining step in demulsification.
