Superamphiphobic coatings based on liquid-core microcapsules with engineered capsule walls and functionality

Abstract Microcapsules with specific functional properties, related to the capsule wall and core, are highly desired in a number of applications. In this study, hybrid cellulose microcapsules (1.2 ± 0.4 µm in diameter) were prepared by nanoengineering the outer walls of precursor capsules. Depending...
