Abstract:

The effect of HLB value and content of emulsifier, emulsifying temperature, stirring speed on the critical water content of phase inversion emulsifying(Rf) and stability of emulsion of epoxy resin E-44 has been studied in this paper, and the mechanism of phase inversion has been discussed also. The experimental result showed that the phase inversion process of epoxy resin E-44 from W/O to O/W is relative with many factors including the HLB value and content of emulsifier, emulsifying temperature, stirring speed et al., and the Rf value is changed under different conditions.

Key words: epoxy resin E-44,phase inversion,the critical water content of phase inversion(Rf),stability of emulsion
