Enables readers to develop more efficient polymer microspheres and capsules

Polymer Microspheres and Microcapsules provides comprehensive insights on microspheres, their production, and a broad range of applications in areas like biopharmaceutical and biomedical engineering, consumer home and personal care products, heat storage, sensors, drug delivery, and electron information. The book not only includes the advancement in biotechnology applications, but also includes preparation methods, principles, and technologies from monomer and preformed polymer systems. Examples of key concepts are included throughout along with the latest state-of-the-art research in the field.

Polymer Microspheres and Microcapsules includes information on:

  • Important characteristics of microspheres, such as size (diameter) and size distribution and how to measure these two characteristics through laser particles and static/dynamic light scattering
  • Existing challenges in the field, including preparation and manufacturing with smaller particle sizes (tens of nanometers) and lack of biodegradable materials approved for injection
  • Hollow microcapsules as a micro-reservoir for energy storage, where the energy storage material is encapsulated in a microcapsule
  • Preparation of polymer microspheres and microcapsules from preformed polymers, covering morphology control, the emulsification-solidification method, and the single and complex coacervation methods

Polymer Microspheres and Microcapsules serves as an excellent resource for undergraduate and graduate students in chemistry, chemical engineering, biology, pharmaceutics and medicines, polymer materials, electronic information, and other related majors. The book is also valuable as a reference for researchers and technicians in related fields.
