Metal nanopowder demulsifiers

Metal nanopowders were found to affect the stability of hydrophobic emulsions. A nanoreagent as effective as highly nonionic demulsifiers was found. It can easily be separated and retains its efficiency after repeated use. The mechanisms of the process were discussed.
