Problems solved by technology

Although there are microfluidic methods to prepare water-encapsulated microcapsules, generally only capsules with a particle size of tens to hundreds of microns can be prepared, which is not suitable for the preparation of millimeter-scale capsules. The roundness and forming rate of millimeter-scale capsules are difficult to maintain. A current problem
In addition, due to the relatively long preparation cycle of this type of method, the continuous stability of the water-in-oil structure is required to be high, the selection range of wall materials is narrow, and the technical efficiency is low.
Moreover, it is difficult to achieve high sealing performance and continuous high-efficiency preparation of water-containing microcapsules in the prior art, and it is difficult to achieve a moisture volatilization rate of less than 10% when stored at room temperature for 6 months

Embodiment 1

[0094] Adopt the method of Example 1 in CN 106540638A to prepare polymer water-in-capsules:

[0095] The inner phase (A) chooses pure water, the middle phase (B) chooses acrylic resin and diluent (Evergreen resin 6215-100 and tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA)) 1:4 mixed (containing 3% photoinitiator, 2 -Hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1-propanone, 1173), the external phase (C) chooses water (containing 1% PVA). The distance between the pipe (1) and the pipe (3) is 3 mm, and the width of the curing channel is 1.5 mm. The internal phase (A), intermediate phase (B), and external phase (C) were pumped into pipelines (1), (2), ( In 3), a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion is generated through the action of shear force and gravity. After the emulsion flows to the curing channel (4), the mesophase is cured under the radiation of ultraviolet light to form a polymer-coated emulsion. water capsules.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a millimeter-scale microcapsule and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of microcapsule preparation. Background technique [0002] The microcapsule is composed of a shell material and an inner cavity. The inner hollow cavity can be used to place active substances, and the wall material can isolate the surrounding environment, thereby protecting the active substances. Microcapsules are used in a wide range of fields, such as medicine, food, cosmetics and other fields that are closely related to life. [0003] Water-soluble flavors and fragrances, water-soluble drugs, water-based inks, water-soluble nutrients, etc., have broad application prospects in food, tobacco, paper, cosmetics and other fields. For example, moisture retention of cigarettes is currently a topic of concern in the industry. The moisture content of cigarette smoke has an important impact on the sensory quality of cigarettes.
