significantly. Figure 4 summarizes results for the 130-nm Tween 20 emulsion;
these are typical of data we have obtained in the past, e.g., for a 170nm emulsion. 14
Before examining individual peculiarities of the different emulsions, an
attempt has been made to analyse all the data according to classical nucleation
