Origin

Early 17th century (denoting a milky liquid made by crushing almonds in water): from modern Latin emulsio(n-), from the verb emulgere 'milk out', from e- (variant of ex-) 'out' + mulgere 'to milk'.

Nowadays we tend to think of it mainly as a household paint for walls and ceilings, whose name comes from the scientific sense of ‘a fine dispersion of minute droplets of one liquid in another’, but emulsion was originally a milky liquid made by crushing almonds in water. Its root is the Latin word mulgere ‘to milk’.

For a smooth finish on an even wall, use emulsion. Sand the bed down to remove the varnish then apply one coat of emulsion paint in blue or dark pink. The walls are heavily decorated with paintings of Egyptian gods and goddesses, solar discs, blood-red emulsion and gold acrylic paint. If you can paint your walls, then do - any room will benefit from a refreshing coat of brilliant white emulsion and it is cheap too. The amount of pigment to emulsion will vary from colour to colour. Here's a basic guide: emulsion is a water-based paint for walls and ceilings, which comes in finishes including matt and silk. Cement paints, masonry paints or exterior grade emulsion are suited to concrete surfaces. He'd made it brighter by painting all the walls in lurid yellow emulsion. A handy tip is to give the walls one or two coats of emulsion or a coat of paste before you wallpaper. For a while he stood in front of the Ironmonger's pretending to study the barbecue equipment, garden furniture, piled cans of emulsion paint. 2.1 A light-sensitive coating for photographic films and plates, containing crystals of a silver compound dispersed in a medium such as gelatin. Example sentencesExamples The grain of photographic emulsion in camera film does much the same. When the shutter of your camera opens for that fraction of a second, photons of light stream in and strike the silver halide grains suspended in the gelatin emulsion. Other photographic emulsions may use other silver halides; for example silver chloride is used for any photography using infrared light. He describes it as a universal developer for modern film emulsions used under diverse conditions, easy to use, and designed to achieve maximum image stain and minimum general stain. This moisture is transferred from the subject to the emulsion surface of the photographic film and causes an alternation of the electric charge pattern on the film. The workshop will cover all the camera-less techniques as well as the process of creating sound by scratching in an optical track onto the film emulsion. When I etched the film emulsion, I was looking for a way to animate without a camera. To make today's platinum prints, a photographer mixes the emulsion from platinum, gelatin and other ingredients, then hand coats a piece of fine art paper with the mixture. To make the light-sensitive paper, a photographer mixes the emulsion for his platinum prints, then places it on art paper. The silver halide crystals in a photographic emulsion are not perfect. In the photogravure process, the image is photochemically transferred to an etching plate that has been coated with a light-sensitive emulsion. The idea is to create a dot pattern akin to the grains of the photographic emulsion. Indeed, this sense of starkness is echoed throughout the show; just 10 large scale gelatin silver emulsion prints were on show here. The radiolabelled object is then exposed to a photographic emulsion to obtain a map of radionuclide distribution. Most of these films have updated emulsions since this data sheet was published in 1982. The pressure plate inside the back has to be completely clean because the film emulsion runs across it. That is due to the fact that when different photographic emulsions are used for these shots, they are usually chosen for their sensitivity, as well as their spectral range. You can change the color of the image by toning or applying gum bichromate emulsions to a finished platinum print. Where there is color, the film has been exposed to light, and white is a ‘flare’ from outside on the sensitized emulsion of the film. Traditional photography utilizes negative film and positive prints that hold the image in an emulsion of silver for black and white or dyes for color. Synonyms mixture, mix, blend, compound, suspension, tincture, infusion, colloid, gel, fluid Origin Early 17th century (denoting a milky liquid made by crushing almonds in water): from modern Latin emulsio(n-), from the verb emulgere ‘milk out’, from e- (variant of ex-) ‘out’ + mulgere ‘to milk’.
