Abstract
pH-responsive capsule particles have immense potential for use in various advanced fields, such as microreactors and drug delivery. Moreover, the interfacial photo-cross-linking of spherical polymer particles is a promising strategy to create various functional capsule particles. In this study, pH-responsive capsule polymer particles were prepared by interfacial photo-cross-linking with photo-reactive polymers possessing different pH-responsive monomer units of different alkyl chain lengths, namely, 2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, 2-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate, and 2-diisopropylaminoethyl methacrylate. Using these different pH-responsive monomers, regulation of the controlled release properties of pH-responsive capsule particles was achieved. All capsule particles prepared from these three different polymers released encapsulated molecules under acidic conditions; however, more acidic conditions were necessary for releasing encapsulated molecules with the increasing alkyl chain length. The afforded results indicated that pH-responsive monomers of different alkyl chain lengths could be successfully employed to regulate the pH-responsive controlled release property of the capsule particles prepared by interfacial photo-cross-linking.

Abstract
Herein, we describe capsule polymer particles with precisely controlled pH-responsive release properties prepared directly via the interfacial photo-cross-linking of spherical poly(2-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate-co-2-cinnamoylethyl methacrylate) (P(DEAEMA-CEMA)) particles. In the interfacial photo-cross-linking, photoreactive cinnamoyl groups in the polymer particles were cross-linked via [2π + 2π] cycloaddition reactions at the polymer/water interface, showing that the shell-cross-linked hollow polymer particles can be directly prepared from spherical polymer particles. The approach has fascinating advantages such as using minimal components, simplicity, and not requiring sacrificial template particles and toxic solvents. The following important observations are made: (I) encapsulated materials were stably retained in the capsule particles under neutral pH conditions; (II) encapsulated materials were released from the capsule particles under acidic pH conditions; (III) the release kinetics of encapsulated materials were controlled by the pH conditions; i.e., immediate and sustained release was achieved by varying the acidity of the aqueous media; (IV) the photoirradiation time did not significantly affect the release kinetics under different pH conditions; and (V) the pH-responsive release properties were regulated by changing the polymer composition in P(DEAEMA-CEMA). Furthermore, by exploiting the pH-responsiveness, capsule particles are successfully obtained via an all-aqueous process from spherical polymer particles. The advantages of the all-aqueous encapsulation process allowed the water-soluble biomacromolecules such as DNA and saccharides to be successfully encapsulated in the P(DEAEMA-CEMA) hollow particles. With this simple interfacial photo-cross-linking strategy, we envision the ready synthesis of sophisticated particulate materials for broad application in advanced research fields.

Microfluidic-Assisted Fabrication of Monodisperse Core-Shell Microcapsules for Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive with Enhanced Performance. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 10:nano10020274.

Abstract
Microcapsule-based adhesives hold special properties offered by encapsulation via an interfacial shell. Microencapsulation provides the possibility of combining the materials with opposite properties for which co-existence is commonly difficult. In this work, we report on a high performance pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) based on monodisperse and size-controllable core–shell microcapsules, which are prepared from double-emulsion droplets constructed using microfluidic devices. Monodisperse microcapsules containing oxalic acid are prepared with a coefficient of variation (CV) size of <5% and the core-material encapsulation efficiency of >90%. The microcapsules and urea-formaldehyde resin are mixed to obtain capsules-based PSA. The overall size uniformity achieved from droplet microfluidics and the rigid interfacial shells from photopolymerized materials ensure high rupture efficiency and sufficient curing reaction during the process. The microcapsules with proper shell thickness can well encapsulate the core material with an even distribution in the center, separating the curing agent from the matrix resin to form a latent adhesive, which is released at the right place and the right time. The bonding strength of >0.7 MPa has been achieved for plywood boards bonding using the prepared PSAs. The capsule-based PSA could encapsulate active components to achieve an extended lifetime for storage, controlled release to achieve on-demand operation, and pressurized mechanical rupture for ease of use. These would be expected to promote the use of PSAs in modern industries such as micro- and nano-optoelectronic devices by further tuning the size and materials of the microcapsules.

Abstract
In this study, a fabrication route towards functional capsule particles was successfully developed by means of a self-templating shell-selective cross-linking strategy that enables us to prepare shell-cross-linked hollow polymer particles directly from homogeneous spherical polymer particles. To prepare redox-responsive degradable capsule particles, a newly designed monomer bearing a photoinduced post-cross-linking group (cinnamoyl group) and a redox-environment-responsive cleavable group (disulfide group), N-cinnamoyl-N'-methyacryloylcystamine (MCC), was synthesized. Redox-responsive degradable capsule particles were successfully prepared from homogeneous spherical poly(MCC)-based particles by a self-templating shell-selective photoinduced cross-linking approach. Moreover, the cargo loading capability of the shell-cross-linked hollow particles was confirmed through a solvent exchange procedure using dyes, polymer precursors and anticancer reagents. Furthermore, redox-responsive degradability of the capsule polymer particles was also confirmed by adding a reducing agent for cleavage of the disulfide linkage. We hope that the efficient fabrication route of functional capsule particles directly from spherical polymer particles opens efficient routes for the fabrication of a wide range of capsule particles; in particular, this technique is robust, productive, and facile because neither additional sacrificial template particles nor toxic solvents are required.

Abstract
Site-specific a posteriori photocrosslinking of homogeneous spherical polymer particles and subsequent removal of the particle core-the self-templating strategy-has been developed as an efficient pathway for hollow particle formation. In this approach, homogeneous polymer particles containing linear polymers bearing post-crosslinkable side-chain groups are first synthesized, and the photoinduced crosslinking occurred only at the shell region in the homogeneous polymer particles. Our fundamental studies clarified that the remaining non-crosslinked photoresponsive groups in the shell region played a crucial role in shielding the core region from photoirradiation. The shell-selective crosslinking was successfully applied to hollow polymer particle formation by core removal. This facile route to polymeric hollow particle formation via a self-templating strategy has great potential to be used as an alternative because the route has high mass productivity and high simplicity as a result of the non-use of additional sacrificial template particles and highly toxic solvents.

Abstract
We demonstrate a new, scalable, simple, and generally applicable two-step method to prepare hollow colloidosomes. First, a high volume fraction oil-in-water emulsion was prepared. The oil phase consisted of CH2Cl2 containing a hydrophobic structural polymer, such as polycaprolactone (PCL) or polystyrene (PS), which was fed into the water phase. The water phase contained poly(vinylalcohol), poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), or a range of cationic graft copolymer surfactants. The emulsion was rotary evaporated to rapidly remove CH2Cl2. This caused precipitation of PCL or PS particles which became kinetically trapped at the periphery of the droplets and formed the shell of the hollow colloidosomes. Interestingly, the PCL colloidosomes were birefringent. The colloidosome yield increased and the polydispersity decreased when the preparation scale was increased. One example colloidosome system consisted of hollow PCL colloidosomes stabilized by PVA. This system should have potential biomaterial applications due to the known biocompatibility of PCL and PVA.

Abstract
We describe herein successful preparations of monodisperse chitosan microcapsules with hollow structures using the SPG membrane emulsification technique. Two preparation procedures were examined in this study. In the first method, monodisperse calcium alginate microspheres were prepared and then coated with unmodified chitosan. Subsequently, tripolyphosphate treatment was conducted to physically cross-link chitosan and solubilize the alginate core at the same time. In the second method, photo-cross-linkable chitosan was coated onto the monodisperse calcium alginate microspheres, followed by UV irradiation to chemically cross-link the chitosan shell and tripolyphosphate treatment to solubilize the core. For both methods, it was determined that the average diameters of the chitosan microcapsules depended on those of the calcium alginate microparticles and that the microcapsules have hollow structures. In addition, the first physical cross-linking method using tripolyphosphate was found to be preferable to obtain the hollow structure, compared with the second method using chemical cross-linking by UV irradiation. This was because of the difference in the resistance to permeation of the solubilized alginate through the chitosan shell layers.
