K-shigaite-like layered double hydroxide particles as Pickering emulsifiers in oil/water emulsions
Abstract Layered double hydroxide (LDH) intercalated with sulfate and potassium was synthesized by co-precipitation with increasing pH, presenting compositions similar to that of the mineral Na-shigaite ([Mn6Al3(OH)18][K(H2O)6(SO4)2].6H2O). We performed submicrometric layered particle characterization using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) as stabilizers in Pickering emulsions. Emulsification abilities were determined using macroscopic observations, optical microscopy and fluorescent confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), using different oil fractions and particle contents and comparing the size distributions of the emulsion droplets obtained. LDH particles produced thin films on oil-water droplet interfaces and reduced the emulsion surface tension from 61 to 55 × 10−3 Nm−1, suggesting that LDH particles adsorbed at the interface, reducing oil-water contact area and the system interfacial energy. Theoretical calculation of coverage (C) showed that only 0.25 wt% of particles, at 0.54 o/w fraction, was required for drop stabilization. The particles generated emulsions with high coalescence stability (14 days after preparation). CLSM images demonstrated the ability of the LDH particles to stabilize oil-in-water interface, water-in-oil interface and multiple emulsions, depending on the concentration of oil in the mixture.

Highlights Layered double hydroxide (LDH) was used as stabilizers in Pickering emulsions. LDH submicrometric particles produced thin films on oil/water droplet interfaces. LDH submicrometric particles generated emulsions with high coalescence stability. Multiple emulsions were stabilized varying the concentration of oil in the mixture.
