- Summary
- The physics and chemistry of water-in-oil emulsions dominate the development of effectiveness tests. Emulsions are variable in stability - this variability is largely dependent on oil type and degree of weathering. These factors complicate the development of a test. Emulsions which have low stability will apparently break easily with chemical emulsion breakers. Broken emulsions will form a foam-like material, called ¿̐urag¿̐u, which retains water which is not part of the stable emulsions.
