    w/o and o/w emulsifier

    Posted by andriannav on November 21, 2022 at 7:46 pm
    Hello!!

    Can a o/w emulsifier with HLB around , be used as a co-emulsifier in w/o emulsions?

    Depends.
    Classic w/o emulsions tend to not require o/w co-emulsifiers but may. Atypical w/o emulsions might even be made entirely with mid to high HLB emulsifiers.
