Any obstacle in making a O/W cutting fluid by way that the largest quantity of water being put off?

How is the correct way on white oil emulsification as O/W but most of the water mix is to be deferred later by indefinite amount of time (when water is added, it just becomes exactly the same as the mixture done at once)?

The general steps for white oil emulsification as an O/W emulsion are as follows:

Preparation: Separately prepare the white oil and water phases, ensuring that both are at the correct temperature and viscosity.
Mixing:To ensure good emulsification, add the oil to the water gradually while stirring or using a mixer. The stirring speed, mixing time, and other processing parameters will be determined by the exact formulation and the type of mixer employed.
Stabilisation: Use emulsifiers or surfactants to assist stabilise the emulsion and keep the oil droplets from separating from the water phase. The type and amount of stabiliser used will be determined by the desired qualities of the finished emulsion.
Cooling: Cool the emulsion to a temperature that will allow it to be stored without separating.

Step 1: Use an effective mixture of at least two emulsifiers
Step 2: Use sufficient amount of emulsifier
Step 3: Enhance the oil/water interface and slow down the rate of agglomeration using thickeners and stabilizers
Step 4: Use a high shear mixer at the right temperature

The correct method for white oil emulsification as O/W with postponed water addition is:

1. Heat white oil to the desired temperature and add surfactants, emulsifiers, and preservatives. Disperse all components by mixing well.

2. Prepare the water phase: Heat water to the same temperature as the oil and add preservatives or pH adjusters. Disperse all components by mixing well.

3. Slowly pour the oil phase into the water phase while stirring. Breaking up huge oil droplets will help disperse them evenly in the water phase.

4. Homogenize the mixture: Use a high-speed homogenizer or ultrasonic processor to break down oil droplets and stabilize the emulsion. This step is crucial for long-lasting O/W emulsion.

5. Deferred water addition: After homogenization, let the emulsion remain for several hours or overnight before adding small amounts of water. This will ensure that the supplied water thoroughly integrates into the emulsion without destabilizing or separating it.

6. Keep mixing the emulsion at a low speed when water is added to avoid oil droplets from settling. This is crucial for long-term O/W emulsion stability.

7. After adding all the water, store the emulsion in a sealed container at an appropriate temperature (e.g., refrigerated for some items). Product formulation and use determine storage conditions.
