This article reviews new information about polymorphic structures, kinetic and microscopic properties of fat crystals in colloidal dispersion states such as aggregates (spherulite), oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion and water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion. The kinetic processes of fat crystallization under external factors such as different cooling rates, shear and ultrasound irradiation are reviewed. Microstructures of fats revealed by synchrotron radiation microbeam X-ray diffraction techniques in bulk and emulsion states are also reviewed for the first time. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
