▎ 摘  要

In this study, we prepared spherical cellulose nanocrystals (S-CNCs) and stabilized n-hexadecane Pickering emulsions in conjunction with graphene oxide (GO), exploring the interaction between S-CNCs and GO in the emulsions. Both S-CNCs and GO are amphiphilic and synergistically stabilize Pickering emulsions by adhering to the surface of oil droplets and within the emulsion space through hydrogen bonding. GO's two-dimensional sheets assemble into a 3D network structure, further improving the stability of Pickering emulsions. Consequently, the stability of Pickering emulsions can be adjusted by altering the S-CNCs/GO ratio, modifying the spatial distribution relationship of stabilizers in the emulsions. At an S-CNCs concentration of 1 g/L and a GO concentration of 3 g/L, the Pickering emulsion demonstrated excellent stability and exhibited no delamination after 31 days of storage. Thus, the S-CNCs/GO combination serves as an effective Pickering emulsion stabilizer, utilizing the synergistic effect between the two components.
