“…The effectiveness of PEOs compounds can be negatively influenced by external factors such as oxidation, light, and temperature, leading to degradation and volatilization of the compounds [ 16 ]. Microencapsulation technology addresses this challenge by enclosing active substances within a protective matrix or shell material, aimed at shielding these components from adverse environmental effects and enabling controlled release or stable storage of the active ingredients [ 17 ]. Depending on the type and amount of shell material used, this technology can be further categorized into single-layer and multi-layer encapsulation.…”
