Microencapsulation and Microspheres

Sphere Formation Preliminary Questionnaire

 * Indicates a required Field

Introduction:

In order to assess your application on a preliminary basis, and since we tailor our services and installations to meet your products’ requirements, we need you to answer a series of questions so that we can decide how we can help you best.

Acceptable Matrix or Shell Materials:

I wish to use the following materials to produce matrix microspheres or microcapsules (please identify the types of material that are acceptable, e.g. Alginate, Agar, gelatine, PVA, Thermoplastics, Wax, Metals/Metal Alloys, Oxides, etc.)

1:

2:

3:

4:

Type of sphere and Installation:

  1. I wish to have a homogenous mixture of shell and core material(s)

  2. I wish to have a liquid/solid core and a solid shell

  3. The diameter of the spheres is mm

  4. I need an FDA/GMP installation for pharmaceutical applications

  5. I need an FDA installation for food applications

  6. I need an FDA installation for cosmetic applications

  7. I wish to produce continuously (instead of batchwise)

  8. I wish to have a variable test installation

  9. I wish to include the installation in a whole production line (so I wish to define the interfaces)

  10. My products have to be melted, therefore I need temperatures up to °C

  11. My products have to be cooled, therefore I need temperatures down to °C

  12. I need a cooling tower for my products (e.g. molten materials) with a height of m and a temperature of °C

  13. I have a cooling tower and want to fit the installation on the cooling tower

  14. My products have to be solidified by gas (NH3 etc.)

  15. My minimum throughput needs to be at g/h

  16. My maximum throughput needs to be at kg/h

  17. My maximum throughput needs to be at t/a

  18. I wish you to run tests with my material

Please describe your needs as detailed as possible:

 

Next Steps:

Now that we have an initial idea of the application that could be useful for you, we will either offer you a test/development plan or ask you more detailed questions.  Please keep in mind that we will not guarantee any throughput or capacity or even usability of the application without testing the material in our laboratories.
