The emulsified feedstock technique is to improve the performance of products by using the micro-explosion phenomenon of emulsion. However, an obstacle to some applications of this technology is the contradiction between emulsion stability and micro-explosion intensity. For the first time, adding water-soluble polymers was proposed to solve this problem. Two polymers of xanthan gum (XG) and nonionic polyacrylamide (NPAM) were investigated and the results show that micro-explosions have five forms. As one of these five forms, the intensity of optimal micro-explosion is three orders of magnitude higher than other forms, and adding 0.5% XG increases the probability of optimal micro-explosion from 0% to 60% due to the low surface activity, strong thickening and pseudoplasticity of XG solutions. By contrast, NPAM does not promote micro-explosion because of its strong surface activity. Finally, a new mechanism for micro-explosions related to surface tension, interfacial tension and viscosity is proposed.

Small-angle neutron scattering is used to measure the number of bound water molecules associating with three polymers over a wide concentration range. Different fitting workflows are evaluated and recommended depending on the concentration regime.
