Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An “oil-in-water” emulsion comprising an aqueous phase, an oil phase, and an adsorption layer at the interface of the two phases, said adsorption layer consisting of a lignin matrix into which metal oxide nanoparticles are incorporated, characterised in that the lignin is present in a quantity of less than 2 wt. %, in particular in a quantity of between 0.5 wt. % and 2 wt. %, and in that the metal oxide nanoparticles are present in a quantity less than or equal to 1.5 wt. %, in particular in a quantity of between 0.5 wt. % and 1.5 wt. %, relative to the total weight of the emulsion.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . An oil-in-water type emulsion comprising an aqueous phase, a fatty phase, and an adsorption layer at the interface of the two phases, wherein the adsorption layer consists of a lignin matrix in which are incorporated metal oxide nanoparticles, wherein the lignin is present in an amount less than or equal to 2% by weight, and that the metal oxide nanoparticles are present in an amount less than or equal to 1.5% by weight relative to the total weight of the emulsion. 2 . The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the metal oxide nanoparticles are zinc oxide particles or titanium dioxide particles. 3 . The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the metal oxide nanoparticles are bonded to the lignin matrix by non-covalent bonds. 4 . The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the metal oxide nanoparticles are incorporated into the lignin matrix by sonication. 5 . The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the metal oxide nanoparticles are bonded to the lignin matrix by covalent bonds. 6 . The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the metal oxide nanoparticles are present in a weight ratio of nanoparticles/lignin between 0.1 and 0.8. 7 . The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the lignin is of natural origin. 8 . The emulsion according to claim 7 , wherein the lignin is derived from a method for extracting cellulose from plants. 9 . The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the lignin is of synthetic origin. 10 . The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the fatty phase comprises an organic solvent selected from the group consisting of cyclopentane, hexane, methylcyclohexane, heptane, decane, dodecane and toluene.
