minus-squareBearOfaTime@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·4 个月前No, it’s not. Absorption /= emulsification. Nor does it equal adsorption. They’re different, and have different properties. An emulsification can be broken by agitation or introduction of another substance. Soap and water do not absorb oil.
