Effect of NaCl concentration on stability of a polymer-Ag nanocomposite based Pickering emulsion: validation rheological analysis with varying temperature.

The utility of a Pickering emulsion (PEm) under saline conditions is strongly dependent on the stability of the emulsion in the presence of different salt concentrations. In this study, we have evaluated the effect of NaCl and temperature on the stability of a polyacryloyl hydrazide (PAHz)-Ag nanocomposite (NC) based PEm utilizing ocular observation, an optical microscope with a thermal stage, TGA, DLS, electrical conductivity, and rheological studies at different temperatures. The creaming stability of PEm in the presence of salt concentrations in the range of 0.
