Polymer Particles with Various Shapes and Morphologies Produced in Continuous Microfluidic Reactors
Abstract
We report a novel approach to continuous and scalable production of core-shell droplets and polymer capsules in microfluidic devices. The described method is also useful in the synthesis of polymer particles with nonspherical shapes. We used capillary instability-driven break-up of a liquid jet formed by two immiscible fluids. Precise control of emulsification of each liquid allowed for the production of highly monodisperse core-shell droplets with a predetermined diameter of cores and thickness of shells. We also achieved control over the number of cores per droplet and the location of cores in the droplet. We carried out fast throughput photopolymerization of the monomeric shells and obtained polymer particles with various shapes and morphologies, including spheres, truncated spheres and, hemispheres, and single and multicore capsules.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
