Question
What microcapsulation method can I use to encapsulate per-fluorocarbons in a silica based coating for slow release?
I need to find a method for slow release of vapours at ppb level and I am considering microcapsulation, which later would be impregnated on the silica based polymer.

Dear Dorota, we are now approaching to a method to encapsulate per-fluorocarbons in liposomes, but actually I've not expertise on microencapsulation in silica . I'm sorry. -
You can use W/O/W microcapsulation method:
1.organic phase:
2. aqouse phase:
3. Hemogenaite:
4.centrifuge: -
If you want all mechanisms contact me by personal message.

Ionic gelation is probably the most suitable method of all.....

Please give message mel and I can possibly help. I would need more information under NDA if necessary before coming up with a suggested method. I would be able to carry out the microencapsulation for you or sub-contract as appropriate.

hi, you can contact me by email. I have an easy solution
-
I will also say that the cross linking gelation is the most suitable method

Dorota,
Not sure if it's practical but there's a high vacuum system on first floor that could dry your samples onto the silica surface.
