emulsion
Oil in water
An emulsion is a mixture of two liquids that don't normally combine, with tiny droplets of one suspended throughout the other.
Milk is an emulsion of fat in water; mayonnaise emulsifies oil in egg yolk.
In photography, the emulsion is the light-sensitive coating on film or paper.
Emulsion paint contains pigment suspended in water rather than oil.
