How to Choose Optimal Chemicals for Microencapsulation & Emulsion Stabilizers

Our resident expert and head of chemistry, Dr. Ben Knappett, discusses ideal specialist chemicals for diverse microfluidic applications whilst encapsulating drugs, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals. During the webinar we’ve introduced our findings and latest innovations, such as surfactants and specialist oils.
