Abstract: A method of creating a bulk product that includes a surface layer of specialized content is based upon the use of an excipient with a different surface tension such that self-differentiating of the excipient from the bulk during drying/curing transports the specialized material to the surface of the bulk product. When the excipient has a lower surface tension than the bulk material, the difference in surface tension causes the low surface tension material to rise to the top surface, bringing the specialized material along. Alternatively, if the excipient has a higher surface tension than the bulk material, it will transport the specialized material to the bottom surface of the product.
