A study on the zeta potential of microcapsules during ageing.
Gelatin, methylcellulose and agar microcapsules were prepared with and without suphadiazine. The zeta potential of these microcapsules was measured at regular intervals during ageing at 45 degrees C. An initial sharp rise in zeta potential is followed by a progressive decrease. Zeta potential could prove to be a useful parameter to study the changes occurring in the encapsulating material of microcapsules during ageing.
