Colloidal Assembly Route for Responsive Colloidosomes with Tunable Permeability

@article{citeulike:2683388, abstract = {Abstract: We present a robust and straightforward approach for fabricating a novel colloidosome system where colloidal particles are assembled to form colloidal shells on the surface of stimuli-responsive microgel scaffolds. We demonstrate that the structural properties of the colloidal shells can be controlled through the colloidal particle size and modulus, and the state of supporting microgel particles.
