Preferred Label : creaming;
IUPAC definition : The macroscopic separation of a dilute emulsion into a highly concentrated emulsion,
in which interglobular contact is important, and a continuous phase under the action
of gravity or a centrifugal field. This separation usually occurs upward, but the
term may still be applied if the relative densities of the dispersed and continuous
phases are such that the concentrated emulsion settles downward.;
