- Un emulsionante (también conocido como emulgente) es una sustancia que estabiliza una emulsión Wikipedia - by Teresa Mozo
- Example sentence(s)
- En principio, un emulsionante es un jabón que consiste en un grupo de cabeza polar (hidrofílico) y una cola no polar (hidrofóbico). Esta combinación de características inherentemente incompatibles en una molécula lleva a una fuerte tendencia por parte de estos compuestos a autoconformarse en agregados-micelas.

- Para que este fenómeno de separación no tenga lugar, y la emulsión se mantenga estable durante un período muy largo de tiempo se utilizan una serie de substancias conocidas como emulsionantes, que se sitúan en la capa límite entre las gotitas y la fase homogénea. Las propiedades de cada agente emulsionante son diferentes, y en general las mezclas se comportan mejor que los componentes individuales. - Universidad de Zaragoza by Teresa Mozo
