A method of preparing a fire extinguishing core-shell microcapsule by a one-pot oil-in-oil/ water emulsion technique. The method includes dissolving a fluid fluoroketone or hydrofluorocarbon fire extinguishing core material and a polymer shell material into a volatile solvent to form a composite mixture. The composite solution is emulsified into a polar phase and a non-polar phase by adjusting a concentration of a surfactant or via mechanical agitation to provide interfacial tension tuning. The volatile solvent is evaporated to precipitate a microcapsule having a fire extinguishing material core and a polymer shell. In a further aspect, the method includes incorporating the core-shell microcapsules in a polymer matrix.

The present application provides for water capsules, preparation methods of water capsules, a preparation method for lightweight concrete and a structure of lightweight concrete. Each of the water capsules comprises an alkali-sensitive shell and water inside; the water capsules are used to mix with a cementitious matrix, the water capsules can survive during concrete mixing and transportation processes but then gradually rupture in hardened concrete; the water released during the hardening of the concrete is beneficial for the hydration of the concrete. The water capsules and their preparation method, the preparation method for and structure of the lightweight concrete of the present application are of unique design and strong practicability.
摘要:
Multiple emulsions with an “onion” topology are useful vehicles for drug delivery, biochemical assays, and templating materials. They can be assembled by ternary liquid phase separation using microfluidics, but the control over their design is limited because the mechanism of their creation is unknown. Here it is shown that phase separation occurs via self-similar cycles of mass transfer, spinodal decomposition or nucleation, and coalescence into multiple layers. Mapping out the phase diagram demonstrates a linear relation between concentric layer diameters, whose slope depends on the initial ternary composition and the molecular weight of the surfactant. These general rules quantitatively predict the number of droplet layers (multiplicity). Further, self-assembly routes for polymer capsules and liposomes are provided with techniques to assemble lipid-stabilized droplets with ordered internal structures.

The present invention aims to provide a method for producing microcapsules, wherein the method can control the particle size and produce microcapsules excellent in retentivity and releasability of a water-soluble core agent. The present invention also aims to provide a microcapsule excellent in retentivity and releasability of a water-soluble core agent. The present invention provides a method for producing microcapsules comprising the steps of: preparing an emulsion by dispersing an aqueous solution A obtained by dissolving at least an aqueous solvent-soluble polymer and a water-soluble core agent in an aqueous solvent in a non-polar solution B obtained by dissolving an emulsifier or a dispersant in a non-polar medium; and forming a core-shell structure in which the water-soluble core agent is covered with a shell containing the aqueous solvent-soluble polymer by heating the emulsion at a temperature of 20° C. to 100° C. and/or decompressing the emulsion at a pressure of 0.1 to 0.001 MPa to remove the aqueous solvent, the weight ratio of the aqueous solution A to the non-polar solution B being 1/10 to 1/1.

A process for preparing an encapsulate, the process having the steps of: (i) emulsifying a hydrophobic perfume-polymer complex in water to form an oil in water emulsion; (ii) at least partially dissolving an encapsulating material in water; (iii) removing at least some water from the oil in water emulsion comprising the hydrophobic perfume-polymer complex and the encapsulating material to form an encapsulate.
摘要:
Release of an active ingredient can be controlled and the active ingredient can be protected from the environment during storage, by distributing it throughout a matrix containing a relatively large amount of polymeric material that is soluble and swellable in aqueous alkali but less soluble and swellable at a lower pH value and which is in the form of a dried oil-in-water emulsion of the polymer or a relatively insoluble partial salt of the polymer with a volatile amine, the full salt of the polymer being relatively soluble. The composition is of particular value for the protection of detergent enzymes.
摘要:
A microcapsule produced by preparing a water-in-oil emulsion comprising an inner aqueous layer containing said water-soluble drug and a drug retaining substance therefor and an oil layer containing a polymer substance, then thickening or solidifying said inner aqueous layer to a viscosity of not lower than about 5000 centiposes and finally subjecting the resulting emulsion to in water drying gives prolonged release of water-soluble drug.

Microspheres which are a matrix of a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer which is soluble in an organic solvent which is immiscible in water, within which a water-soluble substance is uniformly distributed, and wherein the residual level of toxic solvent in the microspheres is lower than 1.5% by weight, progressively and continuously releases the substance over a period of at least 8 days when the microspheres are placed in an aqueous physiological environment, with a reduced or substantially absent first phase of accelerated release. A process for producing such microspheres is provided.
