A water wettable corrosion resistant plastic clad metal laminate suitable for forming into heat transfer partitions for use in apparatus for simultaneous heat and mass transfer.

Plastic clad metal laminate for heat transfer partitions

Improved aqueous edible oil emulsions are obtained by using about 1-20 wt.% of certain water-soluble hydroxy-propylmethyl cellulose ethers as the emulsion stabilizer. These ethers have a thermal gel point of at least 70.degree. C as a 2% aqueous solution, a methoxyl degree of substitution of about 1.12-1.56, a hydroxypropoxyl molar substitution of about 0.10-0.29, and a 2% aqueous solution viscosity of 2-15 cps at 20.degree.C. They are particularly effective in stabilizing homogenized emulsions of citrus flavoring oils used in soft carbonated beverages.
