A process for preparing such an oil-in-water emulsion comprises preparing an aqueous phase comprising a primary surfactant, heating a hydrocarbon-containing oil-phase, and blending the hydrocarbon-containing oil and the aqueous phase under conditions sufficient to form an oil-in-water emulsion. The invention also relates to methods for determining the static and dynamic stability of oil-in-water emulsions.

Abstract: The invention relates to an additive for a bitumen emulsion, which is a specific mixture of alkoxyiated compounds with low and high amounts of alkylene oxide units, in combination with a polyaluminum compound. Using this additive it is possible to prepare an aqueous slow-setting bitumen emulsion-aggregate mix suitable for cold paving of roads, parking places, sidewalks, and the like.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved method for solubilizing an oil-soluble pigment efficiently in an oil or fat by extraction of a solid preparation containing the oil-soluble pigment, where the extraction takes place in the presence of water, an edible oil or fat and a nonionic surfactant. It also relates to the composition prepared by the extraction, and the use of this composition in animal feed to produce feed pellets. The combination of water and nonionic surfactant increases the amount of pigment that is extracted and solubilized.
