Emulsion – polymer production in an emulsion 'phase' has a number of process advantages, including prevention of coagulation of product. Products produced by such polymerisations may be used as the emulsions – products including primary components for glues and paints. Synthetic latexes (rubbers) are also produced by this process. Emulsion An emulsion is a mixture of two or more liquids that are normally immiscible (unmixable or unblendable). Emulsions are part of a more general class of two-phase systems of matter called colloids. Although the terms "colloid" and "emulsion" are sometimes used interchangeably, "emulsion" should be used when both phases, dispersed and
Mixture distribution more mathematically tractable, because the individual mixture components can be more easily studied than the overall mixture density. Mixture densities can be used to model a statistical population with subpopulations, where the mixture components are the densities on the subpopulations, and the weights are the proportions of each subpopulation in the overall population. Mixture densities can also be used to model experimental error or contamination – one assumes that most of the samples measure the desired phenomenon, Parametric statistics that assume no error often fail on such mixture densities – for example, statistics that assume normality often fail disastrously in
