This paper reviewed recent progress on the structured emulsion
involving the structure
preparation
performance and application of ordinary emulsion
microemulsion and nanoemulsion. The narrative of emulsions with structured continuous phases contains three aspects
e. g. lyotropic liquid crystal
thermotropic liquid crystals as continuous phases in emulsions and emulsions with a gelled continuous phase were discussed. The application of structured emulsion was introduced by some examples relating to the structured block copolymers in the continuous phase and technologies in preparation of monodispersed emulsion.
