The discussion centers on the differences between pH meters used for measuring pH in solutions, creams, and oils. Participants emphasize the importance of conducting personal research before asking questions and suggest that pH measurement is primarily relevant for water-based mixtures. It is noted that pH meters may not be suitable for non-aqueous substances unless they contain water. The conversation encourages the original poster to share any findings from their research to foster a more productive dialogue.

TL;DR
ph meters for solutions, cream and oil.
Hello, can anyone advise about specified differences between ph meters for solutions, cream and oil.

To be honest, this looks like a spam setup post, but I'll play along for now.*

At PF, we require users to do their own research before posting questions here. So what have you found in your searching so far?

Maybe @berkeman made the right guess. Otherwise, did you try checking with merchants of pH meters? Is your question based on interest from your education, your experience, or a hoped-for application? I am strongly guessing that pH measurement would only have meaning for water-based blend or mixture or solution. Or maybe for some water dispersed in non-aqueous materials. Experts could respond.
 
So I googled the question and found an interesting article quite easily.
Let's wait to the OP tells us what research they have done first.
 

Thread 'Molecular-level explanation of macroscopic phenomena: dissolving'

What I know and please correct me: a macroscopic probe of raw sugar you can buy from the store can be modeled to be an almost perfect cube of a size of 0.7 up to 1 mm. Let's assume it was really pure, nothing else but a conglomerate of H12C22O11 molecules stacked one over another in layers with van de Waals (?) "forces" keeping them together in a macroscopic state at a temperature of let's say 20 degrees Celsius. Then I use 100 such tiny pieces to throw them in 20 deg water. I stir the...
