Abstract
High impact energy is applied to a modified lecithin in water, to form a base product. A block copolymer surfactant, water and organic oil are added to this base product, and high impact energy is applied once again. The resultant product is a stable aqueous distribution of the organic oil.
Claims1
A product of organic oil distributed throughout a body of hydroxylated lecithin in a water continuous phase, made by the process steps of:
- (1) applying cavitation energy to a mixture of hydroxylated lecithin in water;
- (2) adding a block copolymer surfactant and subject organic oil to the resultant of (1) and again applying cavitation energy.
