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.
