Vitamin D2 was efficiently entrapped in chitosan microcores with spray-drying method and was microencapsulated by coating of ethylcellulose. The average size of chitosan microspheres was 6.06 um. The morphology and release properties of microcapsules were tested. The results of release in vitro showed that the microcapsule could realize sustained release for 12 h in artificial intestinal juice.展开更多

Microencapsulated n-alkanes as energy- storage materials have promising application prospects.

The ndcrocapsules containing 100 - 50 wt% of n - octadecane, 0 -20 wt% of paraffin and 0 - 30 wt% of cyclohexane were synthesized by in-situ polymerization using melamine- formaldehyde polymer as shell. Cyclohexane was removed after heat-treated the microcapsules at 100℃. The morphologies, cell parameters, phase change properties, thermal stable temperatures of these microcapsules were examined. The diameters of these microcapsules are lower than 5 μm. The effect of paraffin in the microcapsules on the cell parameters of n-octadecane is negligible. The paraff'm is effectively used as a nucleating agent to decrease the degree of supercooling. The melting enthalpy is decreased from 132 J/g to 111 J/g due to the increase of the cyclohexane contents. The thermal stable temperature is enhanced 6 - 16℃ after heat-treated the microcapsules at 160℃ for 30 min.展开更多
