Description

Technical Field

[0002] An emulsifier is a substance that can improve the surface tension between various constituent phases in an emulsion, making it form a uniform and stable dispersion system or emulsion. Traditional emulsifiers can be divided into hydrophilic and lipophilic types, which can effectively improve the usability of products, such as enhancing the smoothness during application, promoting hydration, and maintaining the stability of products. However, their disadvantages are also relatively obvious. For example, some chemically synthesized emulsifiers may irritate the skin, or are prone to stratification under high temperature, light and other environments, affecting the stability of products.

[0131] 2. Emulsifying performance test

[0132] Taking the emulsifiers prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-7 as samples, dissolving the samples in deionized water to prepare an emulsion with a concentration of 2%, mixing the emulsion with soybean oil in a ratio of 1:1, adjusting the pH to 7 with PBS buffer, and homogenizing at a speed of 10,000 rpm for 5 min to obtain an emulsion. Observe whether the emulsion layers or precipitates are observed after standing at room temperature for 24 h and heating at 40 °C for 30 min, and the results are recorded in Table 2 below.
