| description |
Citronella oil is one of the essential oils that are recently known for its applicability
in food and pharmaceutical industry. The main problems of essential oil are most
of the component likely unstable and also very volatile. Microencapsulation is a
method whereby one material or a mixture of the materials is coated by another
material. This method is designed for protection, isolation and assist in storage. In
the present study, the gelatine-chitosan microcapsules were prepared by complex
coacervation. In this study, encapsulated citronella oil was placed in simulated floor
cleaner stimulated (Tween 80 solution). The morphology of the microcapsules,
mean particle size of microcapsules, thermal stability, release rate behaviour, and
release mechanism of the microcapsules were investigated. On the optical
microscope, the microcapsules were spherical in shape and of irregular size. This
microcapsule is confirmed by analysis of IR spectra of release of citronella oil in
simulated clean floor solution. The mean particle size of the volume for these
microcapsules is 328.43 μm, which is within the acceptable range of particle size
(1-500 μm) for the complex coacervation ranging between 1–500 μm. The span
value is 1.5 indicating that the particle distribution is narrow and the lower value of
span the better distribution of particle by the volumes. Analysis of thermogram for
microencapsulation and citronella oil show that thermal decomposition of
microcapsule is slightly high (32oC-333oC) compare to citronella oil (44oC-168oC).
Release rate of the microcapsules (closed container) at different stirring rate at the
beginning is slowly at 12 hours and begin burst and rapidly after 48 hours. When
stirring increase from 300 rpm to 700 rpm the release rate increase to 80% in two
weeks. Release rates of the microcapsules (closed container) at different
temperature begin with a high rate in the first five days had become slow and stable
after ten days. The microcapsules release rates were at 42%, 62% and 68% at 25°C,
50°C, and 75°C, respectively after 30 days. Release of microcapsule (open
container) also indicates that release rate begins faster from the first hour at 20 %
and after 96 hours the release rate achieved at 100%. Release properties of the yield

indicate that the released rates were influenced by the stirring rate, temperature, and
