“…Novel and promising approaches to stabilizing emulsions are based on the use of nanoparticles in the socalled Pickering emulsions (Pan et al, 2014(Pan et al, , 2015, or surfactant-free emulsions (Sakai, 2008). In complex emulsions, such as double emulsions in which the droplets encapsulate yet more droplets in themselves, it is important to use proper sets of additives for each phase (surfactants, osmotic agents) in order to balance all types of forces in the system, including osmotic pressure, Laplace pressure and interfacial forces (Deng et al, 2016;Kanouni et al, 2002;Zinchenko et al, 2014).…”
