Abstract

This review focuses on the current understanding regarding lipid crystallisation at oil-water interfaces. The main aspects of crystallisation in bulk lipids will be introduced, allowing for a more comprehensive overview of the crystallisation processes within emulsions. Additionally, the properties of an emulsion and the impact of lipid crystallisation on emulsion stability will be discussed. The effect of different emulsifiers on lipid crystallisation at oil-water interfaces will also be reviewed, however, this will be limited to their impact on the interfacial crystallisation of monoglycerides and diglycerides. The final part of the review highlights the recent methodologies used to study crystallisation at oil-water interfaces.
