The question should be (I guess)..."Which would have a greater emulsifying power in 'hard' water, soaps or detergents?". The answer to that question is certainly the detergent. (Further, fyi, shampoos are great emulsifiers in hard water compared with the two.)
*Please see molecular structures of soaps and detergents to understand how and why detergents emulsify more than soaps.
Detergents are generally considered better emulsifying agents compared to soap. Detergents can work effectively in hard water, whereas soaps can form scum in hard water, reducing their efficacy as emulsifying agents. Additionally, detergents can be more effective at removing dirt and oil from surfaces due to their synthetic nature.
To allow suspended solids to remain in suspension. Emulsion paint for example contains fine particles of pigment in suspension in water. The emulsifying agent prevents the pigments settling to the bottom.
A good emulsifying agent should be able to stabilize the mixture of two immiscible substances (such as oil and water) by reducing interfacial tension and preventing separation. It should form a stable emulsion that remains uniform and does not easily break down over time or with changes in temperature or other external factors. Additionally, a good emulsifying agent should be compatible with the substances being emulsified and have a balanced HLB value for the specific application.
A mixing agent helps to break down the oil into smaller droplets and disperse it evenly in the water, creating a stable emulsion. This allows the oil and water to mix together and stay combined for longer periods of time.
Water-soluble mineral oil can be made by emulsifying mineral oil with a suitable emulsifier in water. The emulsifier helps to disperse the oil in water and stabilize the solution. Additionally, using a high-shear mixer can help in achieving a stable water-in-oil emulsion.
In an emulsion, water is held by the emulsifying agent, which acts as a barrier between the water and the other components of the mixture. The emulsifying agent helps to stabilize the mixture by preventing the water droplets from coalescing and separating out. This allows water to be evenly dispersed throughout the emulsion.
This mixture is an emulsion.
Water and oil form a colloidal dispesion.

The fat-loving part of an emulsifying molecule is called the hydrophobic end because it repels water. This end is attracted to other non-polar substances like oils and fats, allowing it to surround and stabilize them in water-based environments.
Sodium Choleate- it is a bile salt that serves as an emulsifying agent; which aids in the suspension of triglycerides in water. I'm not going to lie, I do not know how or why, but I just did it in my chemistry class last week.
An emulsifying agent is a substance that helps an emulsion become more stable. An emulsion is usually a mixture of two products such as oil and water that do not mix together or that are also referred to as immiscible. By adding an emulsifying agent to the mixture, they cause the oil to be broken down into smaller pieces that can then be dispersed throughout then water. This is then what becomes known as an emulsion.
if you have have water mixing with the oil then your cylinder head gasket might need replaced if it is not overheating just give a good run, when the oil heats the water will evaperate
Water is greater.
Some emulsifying agents include lecithin, egg yolk, and mono- and diglycerides. Emulsifiers are called as such because they have both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties, allowing them to stabilize and form a homogeneous mixture of immiscible substances such as oil and water.
A lotion is usually an emulsion - similar to, for example, mayonnaise. An emulsion is made of two liquids that won't normally mix (such as oil and water) and a third chemical is added that enables the other two to join together. This makes a creamy mixture. This third chemical is called an emulsifying agent.In the case of a lotion, the oil is often palm oil and the second is usually just water. Any of a number of different emulsifying agents (such as emulsifying wax for example) are added to join the oil and water. Scents and perhaps also medicines are then added, as needed, to make whatever particular lotion is required.
