What is the purpose of an emulsion?

To mix things that wouldn't otherwise mix -- such as an insoluble solid in a liquid, or two liquid that do not mix (like oil and water). The purpose depends on what you want it for! For instance, most people like salad dressing to be of one consistency, so the purpose of the oil-vinegar emulsion is make it nicer to eat!Well, an insoluble solid in a liquid isNOT an emulsion, but a SUSPENSION.Emulsions are always mixtures of inmiscible liquids. Example: Mayonnaise.

How to protect my walls in my bathroom?

If it's from dampness you wish to protect from or mould from dampness there are 2 ways. Firstly, the cheaper way, is to use an oil base undercoat and then for the second coat use a mid sheen or vinyl silk emulsion. If that doesn't work, there are anti dampness or anti mould/fungus products such as owatrawl(not sure of the exact spelling, sorry). Again this would prime the walls, after all mould and dampness was scraped away first. Finish the walls with the normal paint later. I realise that some countries don't permit the use of oil based paints so straight to the latter for you guys. Maybe give the wall two coats of the owatrawl or equivalent which is actually used in a mix with normal emulsion. Remember to finish with the emulsion only. Preferably a mid sheen or silk/washable finish for rooms where condensation is typical.
