  The behavior of four oil-in-water (O/W) ioinic nanoemulsions composed of
dodecane, and mixtures of dodecane with squalene and tetra-chloro-ethylene is
studied. These nanoemulsions were stabilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS).
The behavior of the turbidity and the average radius of the emulsions were
followed as a function of time. The results illustrate the shortcomings of
characterizing the stability of emulsions by their creaming rate.
