Abstract
In this study, Tween 80 was used as a surfactant by ultrasonic vibration combined with mechanical ultrasonic vibration to synthesize nanoemulsions from avocado oil. The influencing factors were investigated: volume ratio of avocado oil: distilled water (Voil/Vwater), volume ratio oil in water phase (OIW): surfactant (VOIW/VTween 80), mixing stirring speed, and mixing time to the process of forming nanoemulsion. The synthesized nanoemulsion from avocado oil achieves high quality when ultrasound for 30 minutes at room temperature with Voil/Vwater = 1/75 (v/v), VOIW/VTween 80 = 100/1 (v/v), mixing speed at 600 rpm for 40 min. The nanoparticles sizes of nanoemulsions (140,1 nm), good dispersion in water as shown by polydispersity index (pDI = 0,223). At 600 nm, the nanoemulsion system has a turbidity of 0,305.
