Modern Techniques for Nano- and Microreactors/-reactions

Springer | 2010 | ISBN: 3642128726 | 184 pages | PDF | 6 MB
This book provides an overview of a number of extensively used techniques
to encapsulate a host of different materials, ranging from confined polymerization
to self-assembly. The encapsulation vehicles formed include thin multi-strata
films, emulsions, polymersomes, nanoparticle-based hollow spheres and polymer
capsules. The potential applications of these systems for encapsulation and their use
as microreactors to perform a host of complex reactions are discussed, and examples showing the diversity of properties that can be controlled in these systems are given. |
