| Abstract: | A one-step pathway has been adopted to fabricate biodegradable polylactide (PLA) hollow spheres by interfacial polymerization
in an oil-in-water emulsion system. The mechanism of sphere formation is suggested with respect to interfacial cross-linking
polymerization and subsequent precipitation of the unreacted PLA macromonomers onto the preformed shells. Their hollow nature
and morphology were verified by transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscope characterizations. |
