Coarsening and osmotic stabilisation of emulsions and foams

The coarsening of emulsions and foams due to a diffusive flux of dissolved disperse phase between droplets and bubbles is considered, and the effects of trapping an extra species within droplets /bubbles are studied. It is demonstrated that the extra species may provide an osmotic pressure to counte...
