Abstract

The process of microencapsulation of titanium dioxide nanoparticles during the expansion of a supersonic jet of TiO2 suspension in a solution of polyethylene glycol (PEG 8000) in supercritical CO2 into a vacuum and background gas (helium) has been studied experimentally. The dependence of the position of the microcapsule transition point on the jet axis from the coil to a globular conformation on the temperature in the reactor and on the pressure of the background gas at different co-solvent concentrations has been established. A re-entrant (globule-coil) transition has been recorded at a greater distance from the nozzle exit than the point of collapse.
