A lipid emulsion is provided comprising water, an emulsifier, and a glyceride oil component. The weight ratio of the emulsifier to glyceride oil is approximately 0.04 to about 0.01. It has been found that intravenous lipid emulsions having a weight ratio of emulsifier to glyceride oil of approximately 0.04 to about 0.01 are more rapidly metabolically utilized.

A mixed surfactant system for use in emulsion explosives is provided which confers improved emulsion stability and comprises a surfactant and a co-surfactant, each having branched chain hydrocarbyl tail groups, the former having significantly longer tail chain groups than the latter, for which system poly[alk(en)yl] succinic anhydride based surfactants are especially preferred, said surfactants having an interaction parameter, .beta., which is less than zero.

Fatty emulsion containing 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene derivatives represented by the general formula (1) as an active ingredient, a pharmaceutically acceptable oily ingredient and water. Said fatty emulsion is useful for improving anoxemic and hypoxic symptoms and syndromes, so that is effectively used for preventive agent for arrythmia and heart failure caused by shortage of oxygen and the like.

A wax emulsion is provided which comprises as essential ingredients (A) 100 parts by weight of a petroleum fraction wax having a melting point ranging within 40.degree. to 90.degree. C.; and (B) 3 to 20 parts by weight of an oxygen containing wax; said oxygen-containing wax being prepared by mixing 10 to 80 parts by weight of a petroleum fraction wax (I) having a melting point ranging within 50.degree. to 85.degree. C. with 90 to 20 parts by weight of a polyolefin wax (II) having a melting point...

A stable antiperspirant emulsion is disclosed which contains an antiperspirant salt of aluminum and/or zirconium, volatile cyclic silicone, water, and a low pH-stable emulsifier mixture of polyethylene glycol (21) stearyl ether and a lipophilic co-emulsifier such that the HLB of the emulsifier mixture is more than 7.5 and less than 9.9.

The present invention relates to an emulsion explosive of the water-in-oil type having resistance against dissolution in water, and application of said emulsion in explosive mixtures. The emulsion explosive is non cap-sensitive and can be cartridged alone or in mixture with ANFO. It can also be used in bulk systems. The explosive contains 60-90 percent by weight of ammonium nitrate and calcium nitrate, 4-15 percent by weight of a crystallization temperature lowering agent, preferably urea, and 2...

A process of electrodepositing a metal from an organic phase containing a salt or complex of that metal includes the steps of creating a dispersion of the organic phase in a conducting aqueous electrolyte with which it is immiscible and electrodepositing the metal onto a cathode which is immersed in the organic phase or the dispersion.

A process for the emulsion polymerization of one or more polymerizable monomers wherein the emulsion polymerization is carried out in the presence of an emulsifier in the form of a diacid of a cyclic alkane or alkene. Emulsifiers of that type have been found to provide improved latex stability, improved bloom and improved processability of the resulting polymer.

A wax emulsion is disclosed which upon application to a material forms a film capable of keeping the material water-proof or otherwise protective against ambient influences. The quality of the wax emulsion is improved by the combination of a hydrocarbon wax with a liquid polybutadiene a polybutene or a polyisobutylene.

Emulsion polymers obtainable by emulsifying a mixture consisting of A) 5 to 95 % by weight of at least one monomer from the series consisting of acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, optionally substituted styrene, vinyl carboxylate and B) 5 to 95 % by weight of acrylic and/or methacrylic esters, the sum of components A)+B) being 100% by weight, in the presence of an aqueous solution or dispersion of an anionically modified polyurethane, preferably containing --SO.sub.3.sup.-Me.sup.+ and/or -COO.sup...
