SubsidieMeestersHigh performance hydrophobic suberin nanoparticles for the generation of liquid-air biphasic droplets with application in food and therapeutics
The project aims to develop long-lasting antibubbles using hydrophobic nanoparticles for sustainable drug delivery and food industry applications.
Projectdetails
Introduction
An antibubble is a droplet of liquid with a shell surrounded by a thin film of gas. Antibubbles have many potential applications, e.g. drug delivery with application in a clinical setting and the food industry.
Challenges
The major challenge is to develop antibubbles with a long lifetime, which is essential for industrial usage.
Stabilization Techniques
The gas shell can be stabilized using hydrophobic nanoparticles to create a particle shell surrounding the air.
Advantages of Using Particles
The use of particles, instead of surfactants, to stabilize dispersed systems is an attractive sustainable solution for the food industry.
Research Insights
Our demonstration of the ionic liquid-catalyzed purification of the polyester suberin from plant materials in the form of hydrophobic nanoparticles led us to investigate their potential application for the generation of high-performance antibubbles.
