Abstract
Emulsions are dispersed systems widely used in various industries. In recent years, Raman spectroscopy (RS), as a spectroscopic technique, has gained much attention for measuring and monitoring emulsions. In this review, we explore the use of RS on emulsion structures and emulsification, important reactions that use emulsions such as emulsion polymerization, catalysis and cascading reactions, as well as various applications of emulsions. We explore how RS is used in emulsions, reactions and applications. RS is a powerful and versatile tool for studying emulsions, but there are also challenges in using RS to monitor emulsion processes, especially if they are rapid or volatile. We also explore these challenges and difficulties, as well as possible designs that can be used to overcome them.
