Facile one-pot preparation of novel shell cross-linked nanocapsules: inverse miniemulsion RAFT polymerization as an alternative approach

Abstract

A series of novel shell cross-linked nanocapsules were facilely fabricated in an inverse miniemulsion reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) system, in which poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) acted as a stabilizer and macroinitiator. The as-prepared nanocapsules with PDMAEMA cores and poly(methylacrylic acid) (PMAA) shells, had a size of 220 nm and can be used as a carrier for the encapsulation of hydrophilic components such as inorganic salts.
