Water in adequate amount was added into the above mixture, The mixture was grinded into homogeneous pasty, then added with melted PEG 4000. After being mixed well on water bath the mixed melt was poured into the home-made drop pill apparatus(at 90℃) preheated, dropped into dimethyl silicone at rate of 24 drops/min through the drop head with internal apeture for 45mm and external apeture for 6. 1mm、and cooled well.
