Encapsulation of vanillin/cyclodextrin inclusion complex in electrospun polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanowebs: Prolonged shelf-life and high temperature stability of vanillin

► Encapsulation of vanillin/CD-IC in PVA nanowebs was achieved via electrospinning. ► PVA/vanillin/CD-IC nanowebs show prolonged shelf-life and high temperature stability. ► The prolonged shelf-life of vanillin was significantly dependent on the CD type. ► PVA/vanillin/γ-CD-IC nanoweb effectively stabilized vanillin compared to α-CD and β-CD.
