An emulsion is a mixture that is formed when two liquids that are immiscible are dissolved together forming a single emulsifying agent.
When an emulsion is subjected to centrifugal force, the revolutions of the liquid occur at very high speeds. This leads to demulsifying or separation of the two liquids. The liquid which is less dense or the lighter liquid will stand on the top and the heavier or the denser liquid will stay down.
For example, a mixture of oil and water is an emulsion. When subjected to centrifugation, the oil and water will separate and the water will stay separated at the bottom and the oil will float on top. The creamy layer of the phospho-lipids that are separated in the centrifugation process will be present in between the oily and the aqueous phases.
