Developing plastic/fluorine/silicon-free and degradable water/oil-resistant coatings for paper-based packaging materials to replace disposable plastic products is a very effective way to solve the problem of 'white pollution' or microplastics pollution. A novel water/oil-resistant coating was developed by alkyl ketene dimer (AKD)-based Pickering emulsion and chitosan in this work. Cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) were used as a stabilizing solid for AKD emulsion, with the addition of chitosan as an oil-resistance agent. The coating provides excellent hydrophobicity, water/oil resistance as well as good barrier properties. The water contact angle was as high as 130° and the minimum Cobb60 value was 5.7 g/m, which was attributed to the hydrophobicity of AKD. In addition, the kit rating reached maximum 12/12 at coating weight of 8.26 g/m and the water vapor transmittance rate (WVTR) was reduced to 153.4 g/(m⋅day) at the coating weight of 10.50 g/m. The tensile strength of the paper was increased from 28.1 to 43.6 MPa after coating. Overall, this coating can effectively improve the performance of paper-based materials, which may play an important role in the process of replacing disposable plastic packaging with paper-based materials.

The stabilizing effect of biopolymers on Pickering emulsions has attracted widespread interest in recent years. In this study, the interactions between chitosan (CS) and octenyl succinic anhydride starch (OS) were investigated and used to modulate the interfacial properties of Pickering emulsions, which are crucial for determining emulsion stability. CS/OS complex particles were prepared via electrostatic and hydrogen-bonding interactions and used to stabilize Pickering emulsions for the encapsulation of astaxanthin (AST).

This study aimed to elucidate the pathways through which covalent and non-covalent interactions between deamidated gliadin (DG) and tannic acid (TA) on influence the stability of Pickering emulsions. The interactions induced protein unfolding, as evidenced by increased ultraviolet absorption and a red shift in fluorescence emission. DG-TA composite nanoparticles effectively stabilized high internal phase emulsions, whereas DG nanoparticles alone did not.

Konjac glucomannan (KGM) undergoes deacetylation in alkaline conditions, while κ-carrageenan (CRG) is sensitive to potassium ions. This study examines the influence of KCO on the mechanical properties of KGM/CRG-based camellia oil Pickering emulsion gels. Texture analysis and rheological testing revealed that the addition of KCO significantly enhanced the mechanical properties of emulsion gels.

Recombinant adeno-associated viruses (rAAVs) have emerged as promising vaccine vectors due to their enduring efficacy with a single dose. However, insufficient cellular immune responses and the random and non-specific distribution of AAVs post-injection may hinder the development of AAV vaccines. Here, a novel Pickering emulsion platform stabilized by biomineralized manganese nanoparticles and aluminum hydroxide, which can rapidly and efficiently load AAVs, is reported.

The demand for high-quality, nutritious, and sustainable food products has led to a significant interest in the development of durable and effective emulsions. Pickering emulsions are promising candidates but the currently adopted stabilizers still have limitations. Here in this study, we introduce a novel egg derived reconstituted lipid nanoparticles (E-rLNPs) as stabilizer for Pickering emulsions.
