The first volume of Practical Emulsions has attempted to convey a
general impression of the science of the formulation and manufacture
of emulsions. Salient points have been presented in as simple a manner
as possible, while detailed examination of specific points of the theory
has been left to those whose qualifications and interests better fit them
for such tasks.
In this volume, I have compiled basic formulations of many types
of emulsion. This compilation is intended to provide graphic illustration
of the breadth of emulsion technology. The formulations can also
provide a starting point for the development of new and improved emulsion
products and represent the types of product that can be made
and their major constituents.
These formulations are provided by manufacturers to illustrate the
use of their products. The suitability of any product for marketing,
or the determination of the patent position regarding any formulation,
is the responsibility of the person who manufactures and/or sells the
product.
Many firms have generously provided formulation suggestions,
and they merit my sincere appreciation for their help. Their contributions
are acknowledged by appropriate references at the end of each
chapter.
