Abstract
We provide an overview of the most recent advances in the field of surfacta nt and polymer-stabilized emulsions. The article is focused on inter-drople t forces, monolayer adhesion, aggregation of emulsion droplets, emulsion ge ls and finally destruction through coalescence and Ostwald ripening.
