Optimization of parameters in preparation of PCM microcapsules based on melamine formaldehyde through dispersion polymerization

Fabrication and performance of microencapsulated phase change materials with hybrid shell by in situ polymerization in Pickering emulsion

“…Unfortunately, MePCMs with hybrid as shell were seldom reported. A survey on literatures shows that most literatures refer to the fabrication of MePCMs with polymer as shell by interfacial polymerization, [31,32] in situ polymerization, [33,34] or suspension-like polymerization. [35,36] The structural characteristic of Pickering emulsion makes it a perfect template for microcapsule with polymer-inorganic hybrid shell.…”

Microencapsulation mechanism and size control of fragrance microcapsules with melamine resin shell

“…Yu et al investigated effects of the emulsifier ionicity on the MF microencapsulation, and they found that among the four mentioned styrene-maleic anhydrides the anionic polyelectrolyte could effectively absorb the MF prepolymer and it was suitable for the microencapsulation [28]. Khakzad et al named MF microencapsulation process as in-situ dispersion polymerization, and they discussed the effects of emulsifier and stabilizer on microcapsules formation [3]. Park et al called microcapsules formation as in-situ interfacial polymerization, and they found that the mean size of the microcapsules was related to the viscosity and reunification of core materials [29].…”

A simple sonochemical method for fabricating poly(methyl methacrylate)/stearic acid phase change energy storage nanocapsules

“…The encapsulation technique depends on the physical and chemical properties of the materials used. To date, there are several physical and chemical methods used for the production of nano or micro capsules [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. However, the common problem with these methods is that they all require a complex or time-consuming preparation process.…”
