Abstract: Abstract Switchable Pickering emulsions were prepared using polystyrene-modified magnetic nanoparticles (PS-MNPs) as stabilizers in mixtures consisted of a polar solvent, such as chloroform, and water. For this purpose, bare magnetic nanoparticles (bMNPs) were firstly synthesized… read more here.
