Pulsed field gradient NMR (PFG-NMR) is an important method for the characterisation of emulsions. Apart from its application in quality control and process development, especially high-field NMR methods can be applied to investigate emulsions properties on the molecular level. Meanwhile, complex emulsion structures such as double emulsions have been developed and require analytical tools especially for the determination of droplet size distributions. This contribution provides an overview on the possibilities and methods of PFG-NMR referring to measurement, data processing and interpretation of droplet size distributions. Comparison of techniques and measurements on double emulsions are presented.
