The adsorption of particles to the fluid-fluid interface is a key factor for the stabilization of fluid-fluid interfaces such as those found in emulsions, foams and bijels. However, for the formation of stable particle-laden interfaces, the particles must migrate to the interface from the bulk. Rece...
