The study aimed to investigate the synergistic effect of chitosan particles (CP) and tannic acid (TA) in stabilizing oil-in-water emulsion. The CP-TA complex (3/5) was found to be the most stable due to its low zeta potential, low oil-water interfacial tension, high viscosity, and high TA content. Intense interaction between CP and TA in the complex led to the formation of large CP-TA particles.
The aim of the present study was to explore the effect of CP and TA on stability of oil in water emulsion stabilized by the two components, so as to fabricate the most efficient chitin based emulsifying agents. It was found that there was synergistic effect for CP and TA in stabilizing emulsion, specifically, the complex of chitin particles (CP) (3 g/L) with tannic acid (TA) (2 g/L) produced the most physically and oxidatively stable oil-in-water emulsion compared with other groups in this study. This is because CP-TA (3/5) complex had the lowest zeta potential, the lowest the oil water interfacial tension, the highest viscosity and the highest content of TA with excellent antioxidant activity. Furthermore, this is because there was intense interaction between CP and TA in CP-TA complex from results of FTIR, XRD and ITC, which then result in the formation of large CP-TA particles.
