Simple but Precise Engineering of Functional Nanocapsules through Nanoprecipitation
International audienceA general, rapid, and undemanding method to generate at will functional oil-filled nanocapsules through nanoprecipitation is reported. On the basis of polymer and hexadecane/water/acetone phase diagrams, the composition can be set so that polymer chains preferentially stick at the interface of the oil droplets to create nanocapsules. The nanocapsules can be decorated with biorelevant molecules (biotin, fluorescent tags, metal nanoparticles) within the shell and loaded with hydrophobic molecules in a simple one-pot procedure
