Abstract
⺠β-carotene was encapsulated in polycaprolactone precipitated by a PGSS process. ⺠Particles of 100-600 μm with β-carotene contents up to 340 ppm were obtained. ⺠Small and regular particles were obtained with a low molecular weight polymer. ⺠Differences can be related to the viscosity and CO2 solubility in the polymer melt.
