AbstractPickering emulsions (emulsions stabilized by solid-state additives) are attractive as they have strong similarities with traditional surfactant-based emulsions. In this study, an oil-in-water (O/W) paraffin Pickering emulsion system with satisfying stability and small droplet size distribution was developed by hydrophilic silica particles and traditional surfactants as mixed emulsifiers. The droplet morphology and size distribution were observed by optical microscopy and a laser particle analyzer. The emulsion stability was improved and the droplet size was reduced after addition of a suitable amount of silica particles. The silica concentration of 1% showed the optimal effect among all the levels observed (0.1, 0.5, 1 and 2%). Wood was impregnated with the prepared emulsion, and the chemical and morphological properties of the product were investigated by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) combined with energy-dispersed X-ray analysis (SEM-EDXA). Moreover, the hydrophobicity, thermal properties, surface hardness, axial compression strength (CS) and dynamic mechanical properties were tested. The silica was evenly distributed in the wood cell wall and thus there was a synergistic positive effect from the paraffin and silica in the cell wall leading to better hydrophobicity, improved surface hardness and mechanical properties including the thermal stability.

Silica particles with a radius of 3-7 nm (Ludox and Aerosil) and 270 nm (synthesized by the Stöber method), modified with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and hexylamine, were used to stabilize emulsions. The hysteresis angles θ of the particle selective wetting were measured by the sessile droplet method on the vertical surface or by the pulling a ball method at using a glass substrate modified by contact coagulation of silica. The contact angle at the boundary between the aqueous phase and the saturated hydrocarbon (octane, decane) reached the values θrec = 53 ± 2 ° and θadv = 116 ± 4 ° (the aqueous phase receding and advancing angle, respectively) with an increase in the initial concentration of long-chain CTAB to (1.4–9.5)·10–2 mmol/g of silica. With a further increase in CTAB concentration, a second reoriented layer was formed, which lowered the contact angle. Accordingly, using CTAB, only oil-in-water emulsions were obtained with the oil phase volume fraction Øoil = 0.5. The amount of short-chain hexylamine required to start stabilizing the emulsions turned out to be 2-3 orders of magnitude higher than the amount of CTAB. At using hexylamine, it was possible to increase the contact angle up to the values θrec ≈ θadv = 163 ± 12 ° at a concentration of 7-21 mmol/g. This is due to the fact that hexylamine is not characterized by formation of micelle or reoriented layers. Apparently, the adsorption of hexylamine is possible not only on dissociated silanol groups Si–OH, but also on siloxane groups Si–O–Si≡, which makes it possible to make the silica surface superhydrophobic. The measured contact angles were correlated with the region of stable oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions.

Pickering-stabilized antibubbles were used as a new method to encapsulate Lactobacillus casei. Antibubbles consist of one or more liquid droplets within a shell of gas. The antibubbles were prepared from a water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsion stabilized by silica particles, which was then freeze-dried to remove the water and oil phases, before being subsequently reconstituted in water. Different oil phases and aqueous phase compositions were tested for their effect on the survival of the bacteria. The survival of L. casei after encapsulation using decane was 29.8 ± 2.1% in antibubbles containing 10% (w/v) maltodextrin plus 8% (w/v) sucrose, which is comparable to the survival when bacteria were freeze-dried without being encapsulated. Encapsulation within antibubbles led to a 10 to 30 times higher survival of L. casei at pH 2 in comparison with unencapsulated bacteria. This study shows that probiotics can be encapsulated within a shell of gas through the use of antibubbles and that this protects probiotics against a low pH.
