In a typical experiment, calcium carbonate microparticles doped with CMC, abbreviated as CaCO3(CMC), were synthesized by mixing equivalent volumes of 0.02M CaCl2 and 0.02M Na2CO3 solutions in the presence of 0.05% CMC. After 10 min of mixing, the CaCO3(CMC) microparticles were centrifuged, washed with distilled water. Then, consecutive adsorption of CMC and AAPTS on the CaCO3(CMC) was performed by incubating the particles in CMCNa or AAPTS solution for 15 min, 1 hour respectively. After that, the CaCO3 core was dissolved using 0.1M EDTA solution.
Optical microscope observation confirmed that the hollow capsules with a diameter of 2 to 5 µm were successfully fabricated by this method. In the absence of CMCNa or AAPTS, the formation of the hybrid capsules after dissolving the core particles treated with EDTA solution was not confirmed, demonstrating that both CMCNa and AAPTS were essential constituents to fabricate the hybrid capsules. The influence of pH in CMCNa and AAPTS solutions on morphologies and formation yield of the hybrid capsule suggested that the complex formation of CMCNa and AAPTS on the surface of CaCO3 particles might be achieved via electrostatic attraction between negatively charged carboxylate groups of CMCNa and positively charged amino groups of AAPTS. Preliminary experiments suggested that the capsule formation was affected by concentrations of CMCNa and AAPTS, duration time, layer number and pH conditions. Other combination such as alginate and AAPTS, and application of these hybrid capsules for drug delivery are now under investigation.
