Desired outcome
We are looking for an emulsifier which can formulate an oil in water emulsion which upon triggering can be deactivated to lose its emulsifying properties.
Trigger may be, but is not limited to: UV or light irradiation, pH change. It may not be heat.
The desired outcome would be a product, or a technological approach which provides an emulsifier which will form an oil in water emulsion. After triggering, the emulsifier should lose all of its emulsifying properties such that the emulsion separates.
Details of the Innovation Need
After the deactivation, the emulsifier should be a toxicologically innocent compound with no biological function.
Evaluation criteria are:
-Ability to emulsify oil in water
-Efficiency of the emulsifier: how much is needed per volume oil phase
-Efficiency in triggering: how long does it need to be completely deactivated
Requirements
- -Heat stable up to 80 degrees if solid.
- -Does not need to be heat stable if liquid.
Possible solution areas
- Refining, processing, food, extraction.
