Representative structure of a Pickering emulsion. Depending on the characteristics of the stabilising particles, O/W or W/O type emulsions can be formed. Particles dominantly wetted with the water phase (three-phase angle, θ < 90°) will form O/W type emulsions, while particles dominantly wetted by the oil phase (θ > 90°) will form W/O type emulsions
