Abstract
Surfactant-free emulsions are currently gaining increased interest due to their technofunctional, health-promoting, economic, biocompatible, and sustainable characteristics. Herein, we report an ultrastable, surfactant-free emulsion stabilized by the konjac glucomannan (KGM)-xanthan gum (XG) complex. The results suggested that KGM-XG tended to adsorb onto the oil/water interface, causing a reduction in interfacial tension. The emulsion droplets were less than 1 μm in diameter and had a narrow size distribution. Using laser confocal microscopy and cryo-SEM, it was observed that KGM-XG generated a compact film on the surface of emulsion droplets while simultaneously constructing a three-dimensional network in the continuous phase. Both of these factors contributed to the stability of the emulsion. The present study presents a straightforward approach for producing highly stable emulsions stabilized by polysaccharides. These emulsions can be effectively utilized to enhance the water resistance of cellulose paper, which is extensively employed in the packaging industry.
