A novel technique for studying the stability of emulsions has been developed. Owing to the fact that emulsion turbidity is a function of particle concentration and size, the stability of emulsions can be determined by measuring the change in turbidity with time. The relationship between turbidity and particle size and concentration is derived for a polydispersed emulsion. The stability of acoustically prepared emulsions determined by measuring the initial mean particle size and changes in emulsion turbidity is compared with the stability determined from scanning electron microscope measurements of the particle growth rate. The agreement between the two methods is excellent.
