settling.
Coagulation
Colloidal particles also tend to stay suspended
because they become charged by adsorbing ions
from the dispersing medium onto their surface.
Adsorption is a process that occurs when a gas or
liquid solute accumulates on the surface of a solid
or a liquid (adsorbent), forming a molecular or
atomic film (the adsorbate).
An example of an emulsion is
mayonnaise
Mayonnaise is a heterogeneous mixture of oil and
vinegar, which would quickly separate without the
presence of egg yolk (the emulsifying agent.)
Milk, margarine and butter are also emulsions.
Cosmetics, shampoos, and lotions are formulated
with emulsifiers to maintain consistent quality.
