The application discloses a preparation method of high-load dried orange peel essence slow-release microcapsules. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, dissolving composite
wall material raw materials in water to obtain an aqueous phase; secondly, mixing dried orange peel essence,
vegetable oil and an emulsifier to obtain an
oil phase; thirdly, dropping the
oil phase into the aqueous phase to form an oil-in-water (W / O) primary
emulsion, which is a core liquid; fourthly, dropping the core liquid into an outer
oil phase containing a surfactant to emulsify and form a water-in-oil-in-water (W / O / W)
double emulsion; fifthly, adding a forming agent solution and performing ionic crosslinking to form gel microcapsules wrapping oil droplets of the essence; and finally, separating, washing and
drying to obtain the high-load dried orange peel essence slow-release microcapsules. The composite
wall material raw materials are a combination of
sodium alginate and
pectin. The application realizes the concentration of the essence in the
emulsion droplets and the physical isolation of the composite
wall material raw materials through a W / O / W
double emulsion template, and combines the rapid ionic gelation of the composite wall material raw materials, so that the
loading rate of the essence is increased to more than 60%, which is much higher than the
loading rate level of a traditional
interfacial polymerization method (6.4%) and a conventional
emulsion polymerization method (21.8%).
