Abstract

-butyl cyanoacrylate peak indicated that the film was formed in a condensation layer. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results showed that the composite capsule greatly improved the thermal stability of TTO. Rheological testing showed that the viscosity and viscoelasticity of the surface composite capsules have been improved. In addition, the composite capsule showed good stability in the osmotic environment and has good sustained-release performance and antioxidant capacity in the average human skin environment.
