PREPARATION OF MICRO AND NANOSTRUCTURES OF CHITOSAN BY ULTRASONIC COALESCENCE OF W/O EMULSIONS

Abstract

In the paper, the preeliminary study of chitosan micro and nanospheres precipitation due to two reverse emulsions (W/O) coalescence is described. The composition conditions, which must be filled to obtain stable reverse emulsion is pointed out. Furthermore, the parameters of ultrasonic emulsification and coalescence technique are presented and finally, morphological study of obtained micro and nanospheres are discussed
