Resumen en inglés

The incorporation of air in vegetable oils is highly sought after as it allows reducing the total fat content, while providing a light and pleasant texture. To meet consumers' requirements, nonaqueous foams must remain kinetically stable for several months and must withstand large deformations and flows. In this paper, we describe the fabrication of air-in-oil foams of outstanding stability, both at rest and under flow, based on the use of crystallizable surfactants (mixture of mono-and diglycerides). The air volume fraction is close to 55%, irrespective of the surfactant concentration. The air bubbles are protected against coalescence and Ostwald ripening by a dense layer of crystals. Moreover, the firmness of the surfactant crystal network formed in the oil bulk is large enough to hinder buoyancy driven phenomena. Finally, we demonstrate that the oil foams can be dispersed in an aqueous phase containing hydrocolloids to form a novel type of material: air-in-oil-in-water (A/O/W,) emulsions.
