The production of fine particles via the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO) antisolvent process was carried out. The experiments were conducted at temperatures of 40-60 °C and pressures of 8-12 MPa with a 15 mL min carbon dioxide (CO) and 0.5 mL min feed solution flow rate. As a feed solution, the curcumin and the polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) powder were dissolved in acetone and ethanol at concentrations of 1.0 mg mL and 2.0-4.0% in weight, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images described that most of the precipitated particle products have spherical morphologies with a size of less than 1 μm. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectra exhibited that the curcumin structural properties did not shift after the SC-CO antisolvent process. Moreover, the PVP addition in the curcumin particle products can enhance the curcumin dissolution in distilled water significantly.
通过超临界二氧化碳(SC-CO)抗溶剂法进行了细颗粒的制备。实验在40 - 60°C的温度和8 - 12 MPa的压力下进行,二氧化碳(CO)流速为15 mL/min,进料溶液流速为0.5 mL/min。作为进料溶液,姜黄素和聚乙烯吡咯烷酮(PVP)粉末分别以1.0 mg/mL的浓度和2.0 - 4.0%(重量)溶解在丙酮和乙醇中。扫描电子显微镜(SEM)图像表明,大多数沉淀颗粒产品具有尺寸小于1μm的球形形态。傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)谱显示,姜黄素的结构性质在SC-CO抗溶剂过程后没有发生变化。此外,在姜黄素颗粒产品中添加PVP可显著提高姜黄素在蒸馏水中的溶解度。
