abstract = "Microcapsule is a promising template to utilize as a drug carrier with their uniform membrane. However, microcapsules with size- and charge-selective permeability are still limited to introduce practical drugs, which usually have small sizes. Herein we report microfluidic approach to produce microcapsules with polarity-selective and temperature-dependent permeability using photo-curable monomers and phase change material. Through photo-polymerization, membrane can form continuous oil pathway within the rigid framework. Moreover, their pathway can be regulated additionally at different temperature. Therefore, it is believed to be improve as novel drug carrier with monodisperse shape, high encapsulation efficiency, high mechanical stability and selective permeability.",
