Hybrid nanostructured particles via surfactant-free double miniemulsion polymerization

Hybrid nanostructured particles via surfactant-free double miniemulsion polymerization

Double emulsions show significant advantages for microencapsulation but are thermodynamically unstable. Here the authors show, that silica nanocapsules with nanorattles or Janus-like nanomushroom structures can be prepared by stabilizing double emulsions with a silica precursor polymer and subsequen...
