Abstract
Emulsions are multiphasic systems composed of at least two immiscible phases. Emulsion formulation can be made by numerous processes such as low-frequency ultrasounds, high-pressure homogenization, microfluidization, as well as membrane emulsification. These processes often need emulsifiers’ presence to help formulate emulsions and to stabilize them over time. However, certain emulsifiers, especially chemical stabilizers, are less and less desired in products because of their negative environment and health impacts. Thus, to avoid them, promising processes using high-frequency ultrasounds were developed to formulate and stabilize emulsifier-free emulsions. High-frequency ultrasounds are ultrasounds having frequency greater than 100 kHz. Until now, emulsifier-free emulsions’ stability is not fully understood. Some authors suppose that stability is obtained through hydroxide ions’ organization at the hydrophobic/water interfaces, which have been mainly demonstrated by macroscopic studies. Whereas other authors, using microscopic studies, or simulation studies, suppose that the hydrophobic/water interfaces would be rather stabilized thanks to hydronium ions. These theories are discussed in this review.

Abstract
We have developed a new emulsion template method for the synthesis of poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) hollow nanoparticles with different sizes. This synthetic method involves sequential ultrasonic irradiation (20 kHz → 500 kHz → 1.6 MHz → 2.4 MHz → 5.0 MHz) for acoustic emulsification of a water-insoluble fluorous solvent such as perfluoromethylcyclohexane (PFMCH) in an aqueous medium, followed by monomer (methylmethacrylate (MMA)) adsorption on the surface of the PFMCH emulsion droplets and photopolymerization of the adsorbed MMA in the obtained emulsion solution. Since the size of the PFMCH droplet templates can be tuned according to the number of steps of tandem acoustic emulsification, the obtained PMMA particle size can also be controlled. The subsequent removal of the core fluorous solvent by the heat treatment yielded size-controlled PMMA hollow nanoparticles and monodisperse PMMA hollow nanoparticles of different sizes. Furthermore, we confirmed that the substances could go in or go out of the hollow particles through the shells. Such a nice permeability is important for applications such as nanoreactors and drug delivery systems.

Abstract
The emulsions with nano-sized dispersed phase is called nanoemulsions having a wide variety of applications ranging from food, dairy, pharmaceutics to paint and oil industries. As one of the high energy consumer methods, ultrasonic emulsification (UE) are being utilized in many processes providing unique benefits and advantages. In the present review, ultrasonic nano-emulsification is critically reviewed and assessed by focusing on the main parameters such pre-emulsion processes, multi-frequency or multi-step irradiations and also surfactant-free parameters. Furthermore, categorizing aposematic data of experimental researches such as frequency, irradiation power and time, oil phase and surfactant concentration and also droplet size and stability duration are analyzed and conceded in tables being beneficial to indicate uncovered fields. It is believed that the UE with optimized parameters and stimulated conditions is a developing method with various advantages.

Synthesis of sub-micronic and nanometric PMMA particles via emulsion polymerization assisted by ultrasound: Process flow sheet and characterization. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2018; 40:183-192.

Abstract
PMMA particle synthesis was performed from MMA (methyl methacrylate) and water mixtures, exposed to different ultrasonic systems and frequencies. The sonication sequence was 20kHz→580kHz→858kHz→1138kHz, and the solution was sampled after each irradiation step for polymerization. Effects of sonication parameters (time, power), polymerization method (thermo-initiated or photo-initiated), use of small amounts of surfactant (Triton X-100™ or Tween® 20) and initial MMA quantity were investigated on particle size and synthesis yields. Particle size and size distribution were measured by DLS (Dynamic Light Scattering), and confirmed via SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) images. Synthesis yield was calculated using the dry weight method. Particle composition was estimated using FTIR (Fourier Transform Infra-Red) spectroscopy. PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) monodispersed particles were successfully synthesized, with a possibility of control in the 78-310nm size range. These sized-controlled particles were synthesized with a 7.5-85% synthesis yield (corresponding to 7.5-40g/L particle solid content), depending on operational parameters. Furthermore, a trade-off between particle size and synthesis yield can be proposed: 20kHz→10min waiting time→580kHz→858kHz leading to 90nm particles diameter with 72% yield in less than 40min for the whole sequence. Thus, the synthesis under ultrasound can be found easy to implement and time efficient, ensuring the success of the scale-up approach and opening up industrial applications for this type of polymeric particles.
