A Multiscale Approach to the Design and Manipulation of Oil-in-Water Emulsion-Based Products

Flow behavior index (in log scale) as a function of the incorporated energy per volume (in log scale) for O/W emulsions within a concentration range between 10%  and 90%  (the concentration values increase in 10%  intervals). Excluding the points where the dispersed phase concentration is too low to have an impact on the rheological behavior of the system or too high to let the system rearrange after a strain, a novel, and concentration-independent relationship is proposed seen in the regression of the data.
