Intensifying the microencapsulation process: Ultrasonic atomization as an innovative approach

In this review, new approaches to the microencapsulation processes, widely used in the manufacturing of pharmaceutical products, are discussed focusing the attention on the emerging ultrasonic atomization technique. Fundamentals and novel aspects are presented, and advantages of ultrasonic atomization in terms of intensification and low energy requests are emphasized.

Researches on microencapsulation assisted by ultrasonic energy confirm the interest in continuing investigations on the encapsulation process associated to the need to move towards intensified preparing methods.Figure optionsDownload high-quality image (29 K)Download as PowerPoint slide
