I am currently working on emulsions. this is why paint is an emulsion:
Emulsions are a mixture of two substances that do not mix. One of the substances is dispersed in the other. Emulsions have a clouded look due to the various substance boundaries that scatter light rays passing through them. Emulsions are not formed naturally and are generally unstable. Paints are a kind of emulsion. The paint pigments are suspended in a solvent that is also used to control the viscosity of the emulsion paint.

∙ 11y agoPaints that are emulsion are made up of drops of liquid polymer spread out in water plus a suspension of solid colored pigment partricles. That's why we call them emulsion paints. When we put them on the wall, the water evaporates, leaving the wall coated with a thin layer of polymer and colored pigment.
