dispersne süsteem, kus ühe v mitme vedeliku tilgakesed on ühtlaselt jaotunud nende vedelikega segunematus vedelikus (dispersioonikeskkonnas)
pihus, milles üks vedelik on pihustunud teises
fluid colloidal system in which liquid droplets and/or liquid crystals are dispersed in a liquid
a temporary or permanent dispersion of an oil or other hydrophobic material in an aqueous solution, or vice versa, forming an oil‐in‐water emulsion or a water‐in‐oil emulsion respectively
An emulsion is denoted by the symbol O/W if the continuous phase is an aqueous solution and by W/O if the continuous phase is an organic liquid (an 'oil'). More complicated emulsions such as O/W/O (i.e. oil droplets contained within aqueous droplets dispersed in a continuous oil phase) are also possible.
