Mixtures of Arabic gum (GA)maltodextrin (MD)modified starch (OSA)and whey protein (WP) were used as carriers. GA + MD and OSA + MD microcapsules were subjected to agglomeration. All the samples were stored for 60 days with access to daylight. Stability of the emulsions had a significant effect on efficiency of microencapsulation but had no effect on β-carotene retention during sample storage.

Alloy-SF adhesion/bonding strength measurement The adhesion strength tests were carried out according to the standard method (ISO 4624) using the LUMiFrac Adhesion Analyser (LUMGermany). The centrifugal force acted as a tensile loadwhich increased from 0.1 N to 7500 N with a linear increase rate of 10 N/s. The testing temperature was 22 °C. Once the applied load exceeded the tensile strength of the sample-assemblythe test stamp with the coating should be detached from the substrate at the moment of rupture. From the automatically detected loadthe bonding strength of SF coating and TC4 substrate was derived. A two-part epoxy adhesive 3 M DP8005 and a consistent procedure (cured at room temperature for 24 h) were applied to adhere the samples onto the stamps.
