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.

Abstract
We propose a synthesis method for hollow copolymer nanoparticles, in which the size is controllable by the wettability of the materials designed by relative energy difference (RED). We investigated the influence of cross-linkers in RED and the hollow polymer nanoparticle synthesis. The size of the nanoparticles was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy images. The diameter size of the hollow copolymer (styrene-co-methyl methacrylate) changes from 400 to 141 nm and the average core-vacancy sizes changes from 330 to 71 nm as increasing the feed ratio of the cross-linker, divinyl benzene, from 0.07 to 0.43. Cross-linkers in polymerization precipitates a polymerization reaction to produce seed copolymer particles quickly. The seed copolymer is a more transferrable medium through the surfactants across emulsion droplets and inhibits emulsion growth by unstable concentration variations of seed copolymers in emulsions. Therefore, Ostwald ripening was reduced by a higher feeding ratio of the cross-linker in the copolymer, which tends to produce smaller sized hollow nanoparticles.

Abstract
Hollow polymer nanoparticles are of great importance in various industrial fields such as drug delivery vehicles in pharmaceutics, high thermal insulation materials for heat flow blocking and energy savings, and materials with unique optical properties. While the fabrication methods for hollow polymer nanoparticles have been studied and developed by numerous researchers, most synthesis methods require a rather complicated process, including a thorough core-washing step to formulate pores inside the particles. Single-step synthesis methods were developed to overcome this practical issue by utilizing the sacrificial solvent filling the pores temporarily and having it naturally evaporate without further process; however, such processes could not produce sub-200 nm diameter particles, which limit the application for high surface area applications. Herein, we have developed an innovative synthesis method that can overcome the particle size limitation by utilizing a sacrificial solvent for pore formation and a recondensation inhibitor. Pseudo-state Ostwald ripening was realized by selecting the sacrificial solvent with less affinity to the copolymer of hollow polymer particles, thus inhibiting the particle growth during polymerization. We have successfully obtained 120 nm diameter hollow PS-PMMA copolymer particles in large quantity via the single-step preparation of emulsion polymerization.

Abstract
Polyurea (PU) nano-capsules have received voluminous interest in various fields due to their biocompatibility, high mechanical properties, and surface functionality. By incorporating magnetic nanoparticle (MNPs) into the polyurea system, the attributes of both PU and MNPs can be combined. In this work, we describe a facile and quick method for preparing magnetic polyurea nano-capsules. Encapsulation of ionic liquid-modified magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs), with polyurea nano-capsules (PU NCs) having an average size of 5–20 nm was carried out through interfacial polycondensation between amine and isocyanate monomers in inverse nano-emulsion (water-in-oil). The desired magnetic PU NCs were obtained utilizing toluene and triple-distilled water as continuous and dispersed phases respectively, polymeric non-ionic surfactant cetyl polyethyleneglycol/polypropyleneglycol-10/1 dimethicone (ABIL EM 90), diethylenetriamine, ethylenediamine diphenylmethane-4,4′-diisocyanate, and various percentages of the ionic liquid-modified MNPs. High loading of the ionic liquid-modified MNPs up to 11 wt% with respect to the dispersed aqueous phase was encapsulated. The magnetic PU NCs were probed using various analytical instruments including electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and nuclear magnetic spectroscopy. This unequivocally manifested the successful synthesis of core-shell polyurea nano-capsules even without utilizing osmotic pressure agents, and confirmed the presence of high loading of MNPs in the core.

Abstract
In order to lower the capital and operational cost of desalination and wastewater treatment processes, nanofiltration (NF) membranes need to have a high water permeation and ionic rejection, while also maintaining a stable performance through antifouling resistance. Recently, Turing-type reaction conditions [ Science 2018, 360, 518-521] and sacrificed metal organic frame (MOF) nanoparticles [ Nat. Commun. 2018, 9, 2004] have been reported to introduce nanovoids into thin-film composite (TFC) polyamide (PA) NF membranes for an improved performance. Herein, we report a one-step fabrication of thin-film nanocomposite membranes (TFNM) with controllable nanovoids in the polyamide layer by introducing hollow zwitterionic nanocapsules (HZNCs) during interfacial polymerization. It was found that embedding HZNCs increases the membrane internal free volume, external surface area, and hydrophilicity, thus enhancing the water permeation and antifouling resistance without trading off the rejection of multivalent ions. For example, water permeation of the NF membranes embedded with about 19.0 wt % of HZNCs (73 L m-2 h-1) increased by 70% relative to the value of the control TFC NF membrane without HZNCs (43 L m-2 h-1). This increase comes while also maintaining 95% rejection of Na2SO4. Further, we also determined the effect of the mass loading of HZNCs on the top surface of the TFC NF membranes on the membrane performance. This work provided a direct and simple route to fabricate advanced desalination membranes with a superior separation performance.

Abstract
Utilizing the unique solubility of poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC), which is soluble in only water and alcohol, we synthesized a water-soluble block copolymer emulsifier composed of a hydrophilic PMPC block and an amphiphilic poly[oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate] (POEGMA) block via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions were successfully formed in the presence of the resulting PMPC- b-POEGMA, which acted as a stabilizer of water droplets in a chloroform continuous phase because the PMPC and POEGMA blocks were distributed to the water and chloroform phases, respectively. Next, the amphiphilic poly[poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate] (PPEGMA) gel layer, which contained bis(2-methacryloyl)oxyethyl disulfide as a reductively responsive cross-linker, was prepared by inverse miniemulsion periphery RAFT polymerization from the PMPC- b-POEGMA that stabilized the W/O emulsions. The resulting PPEGMA gel capsules were colloidally stable in not only chloroform but also water without additional hydrophilic surface modification. The drug-release behavior from the PPEGMA gel capsules in response to dithiothreitol (DTT), which is a reducing agent, was investigated using fluorescein-conjugated dextran (FITC-Dex) as a model drug. The FITC-Dex release rate from the gel capsules in a phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4, 20 mM) with DTT was fast compared to that without DTT. The reductively responsive FITC-Dex release is attributed to the cleavage of disulfide bonds that act as cross-links in the PPEGMA gel layer. The fascinating properties of the PPEGMA gel capsules suggest that they can provide a useful platform for designing drug carriers for protein and gene delivery and nanobioreactors.

They have the potential to both increase the efficiency of renewable energies such as solar power through storage of excess energy, which can be used at times of peak demand; and to reduce overall energy demand through passive thermal regulation. 198.3 million tons of oil equivalent were used in the EU in 2013 for heating. However, bulk PCMs are not suitable for use without prior encapsulation. Encapsulation in a shell material provides benefits such as protection of the PCM from the external environment and increased specific surface area to improve heat transfer. This review highlights techniques for the encapsulation of both organic and inorganic PCMs, paying particular attention to nanoencapsulation (capsules with sizes <1 μm). We also provide insight on future research, which should focus on (i) the development of multifunctional shell materials to improve lifespan and thermal properties and (ii) advanced mass manufacturing techniques for the economically viable production of PCM capsules, making it possible to utilize waste heat in intelligent passive thermal regulation systems, employing controlled, "on demand" energy release/uptake.

CO 2 switchable hollow nanospheres. J Colloid Interface Sci 2018; 522:10-19.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Hollow nanospheres, characterized by a cavity inside a solid shell, have potential applications due to their unique structure, but the unchangeable morphology and permeability of the shell restrain their further practical utilization. While several smart hollow nanospheres that can respond to pH, ion strength, and temperature have been developed, they are inclined to suffer from problems associated with high energy consumption or the difficult removal of residual stimulants. Thus, it is desirable to develop a novel and free-of-residual trigger stimulating mode. EXPERIMENTS In this work, CO2 is used to fabricate smart hollow nanospheres composed of crosslinked poly(diethylamino-ethyl methacrylate) (PDEAEMA) network from polystyrene (PS)/PDEAEMA core-shell nanospheres by a template-removal technique. The morphology evolution of the resultant nanospheres during the fabrication process was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) and was visualized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). FINDINGS Hollow nanospheres can be generated by experiencing a morphology change from a core nanosphere, core-shell, yolk-shell to a final hollow structure. The increase in shell-stiffness can restrain the collapse of hollow spheres. It is demonstrated that CO2 is easy to introduce and remove (via N2 input) without stimulation residues in this system. In addition, mild CO2/N2 purging can only reversibly change the swelling/collapse of hollow particles; violent CO2/N2 bubbling can reversibly regulate both the size and aggregation/re-dispersion state of the hollow nanospheres, which can be intuitively observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM).

Abstract
We introduce the facile synthesis of segmented copolymers by a catalyst-free Diels-Alder (DA) reaction at ambient temperature via step-growth and subsequent reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. High molecular weight step-growth polymers are readily obtained (Mw = 40 000 g mol-1), featuring trithiocarbonate moieties in their chain, which allow monomer insertion via RAFT polymerization yielding high molecular weight species.

Abstract
Polymerized High Internal Phase Emulsions (PolyHIPEs) were prepared using emulsion-templating, stabilized by an amphiphilic diblock copolymer prepared by reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The diblock copolymer consisted of a hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate (PEO MA, average Mn 480) segment and a hydrophobic styrene segment, with a trithiocarbonate end-group. These diblock copolymers were the sole emulsifiers used in stabilizing "inverse" (oil-in-water) high internal phase emulsion templates, which upon polymerization resulted in a polyHIPE exhibiting a highly interconnected monolithic structure. The polyHIPEs were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, BET surface area measurements, SEM, SEM-EDX, and TGA. These materials were subsequently investigated as stationary phase for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) via in situ polymerization in a capillary format as a 'column housing'. Initial separation assessments in reversed-phase (RP) and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatographic (HILIC) modes have shown that these polyHIPEs are decorated with different microenvironments amongst the voids or domains of the monolithic structure. Chromatographic results suggested the existence of RP/HILIC mixed mode with promising performance for the separation of small molecules.

Abstract
Casein-based hollow polymeric sphere were fabricated through emulsifier-free polymerization coupled with alkali swelling approach. Hollow structure and nanoscale size of casein-based polymeric spheres were verified by TEM, AFM, SEM, and UV-vis spectra. The as-obtained hollow spheres were proved exhibiting superior opaque characteristic. Through adjusting the structural parameters, for example, MAA usages and MAA content in seed to core, sphere film showed tunable visible-light transmittance and antiultraviolet property. The formation mechanism of casein-based hollow sphere has been discussed in depth. Worth mentioning, the resultant hollow polymeric sphere can easily form films itself at room temperature, which would open a new possibility of designing opaque coatings in several fields, such as leather, packaging, paper making, biomedical, and special indoor coating applications.

Abstract
The synthesis of polymeric nanocapsules in the approximate diameter range 40-100 nm (TEM/SEM) using catanionic surfactant vesicle templates stabilized by subcritical CO2 is demonstrated. Near equimolar aqueous solutions of the surfactants sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) experienced immediate vesicle destabilization and precipitation in the absence of CO2. However, pressurization with CO2 (5 MPa) dramatically enhanced the stability of the initial vesicles, and enabled swelling of the bilayers with hydrophobic monomers via diffusion loading (loading of monomers into preformed bilayers). Subsequent radical crosslinking polymerization of the monomers n-butyl methacrylate/tert-butyl methacrylate/ethylene glycol dimethacrylate contained within the bilayers was conducted at room temperature using UV-initiation under CO2 pressure. The hollow structure of the resultant nano-objects was confirmed by successful encapsulation and retention of the dye Nile Blue. It is demonstrated that using this method, polymeric nanocapsules can be successfully prepared using diffusion loading of up to 94 wt% monomer (rel. to surfactant) stabilized by CO2.

Abstract
Encapsulation of hydrophilic cancer drugs in polymeric nanocapsules was achieved in a one-pot process via the inverse miniemulsion periphery RAFT polymerization (IMEPP) approach. The chosen guest molecule was gemcitabine hydrochloride, which is used as the first-line treatment of pancreatic cancer. The resulting nanocapsules were confirmed to be ∼200 nm, with excellent encapsulation (∼96%) and loading (∼12%) efficiency. Postpolymerization reaction was successfully conducted to create glyocopolymer nanocapsules without any impact on the loads as well as the nanocapsules size or morphology. The loaded nanocapsules were specifically designed to be responsive in a reductive environment. This was confirmed by the successful disintegration of the nanocapsules in the presence of glutathione. The gemcitabine-loaded nanocapsules were tested in vitro against pancreatic cancer cells (AsPC-1), with the results showing an enhancement in the cytotoxicity by two fold due to selective accumulation and release of the nanocapsules within the cells. The results demonstrated the versatility of IMEPP as a tool to synthesize functionalized, loaded-polymeric nanocapsules suitable for drug-delivery application.

Abstract
We report herein the versatility of inverse miniemulsion periphery RAFT polymerization (IMEPP) and postpolymerization reaction in producing pH-responsive nanocapsules with different functionalities. The robustness of the polymeric nanocapsules was confirmed by their ability to undergo reactions, be dried, and be redispersed in various solvents without any changes in size and core-shell morphology. Nanocapsules bearing carboxylic acid (COOH) functionalities were produced via hydrolysis, while nanocapsules bearing tertiary-amine (N-X3) functionalities were synthesized via aminolysis. The responsive behavior of the nanocapsules was tested in aqueous solution with pHs ranging from 3 to 12. Nanocapsules with COOH functionalities were found to swell under basic conditions due to the deprotonated carboxylate ions. In contrast, nanocapsule with tertiary amine functionalities underwent swelling in acidic conditions.

Abstract
Hollow polymer capsules are attracting increasing research interest due to their potential application as drug delivery vectors, sensors, biomimetic nano- or multi-compartment reactors and catalysts. Thus, significant effort has been directed toward tuning their size, composition, morphology, and functionality to further their application. In this review, we provide an overview of emerging techniques for the fabrication of polymer capsules, encompassing: self-assembly, layer-by-layer assembly, single-step polymer adsorption, bio-inspired assembly, surface polymerization, and ultrasound assembly. These techniques can be applied to prepare polymer capsules with diverse functionality and physicochemical properties, which may fulfill specific requirements in various areas. In addition, we critically evaluate the challenges associated with the application of polymer capsules in drug delivery systems.
