dc.description.abstractPoly(methyl acrylate) (PMA) of various weight average molecular weights (M̄w) were synthesized via the iniferter route and applied for the encapsulation of disinfectant agent (chlorhexidine digluconate; CHD) by using the controlled precipitation technique. The encapsulation efficiency of CHD-PMA nanocapsules suspended in cyclohexane increased from 70 to 100% when the M̄w of PMA increased from 40 K to 550 K. After redispersing the capsules into 0.5% w/v of sodium dodecyl sulphate aqueous solution, the maximum content of CHD in the nanocapsules remained >90%. Transmission electron micrographs showed the spherical nanocapsule with continuous intact shell. Copyright © 2010 American Scientific Publishers. All rights reserved.en_US
