Abstract

This thesis is concerned with the study of two phase systems stabilised by nanometre sized solid particles. The understanding of how modifying these particles at the oil(air)-water interface can change the properties of the bulk systems they stabilise is important for a number of industrial applications including agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food technology, paints, paper processing and oil recovery.

Each section of this work investigates a different solid-stabilised system. For each of these systems a novel way to change the properties of the system through modification of the particle behaviour at the fluid interface is identified, or a behaviour which is unique to solid-stabilised systems is investigated.
