Multilayer films containing microgels of chemically cross-linked poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and dextran (named PAH-D) were fabricated by layer-by-layer deposition of PAH-D and poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS). The successful fabrication of PAH-D/PSS multilayer films was verified by quartz crystal microbalance measurements and cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy. The as-prepared PAH-D/PSS multilayer films can reversibly load and release negatively charged dyes such as methyl orange (MO) and fluorescein sodium and mercaptoacetic acid-stabilized CdTe nanoparticles. The loading capacity of the film for MO can be as large as similar to 3.0 mu g/cm(2) per bilayer, which corresponds to a MO density of 0.75 g/cm(3) in the film. The high loading capacity of the PAH-D/PSS films originates from the cross-linked film structure with sufficient binding groups of protonated amine groups, as well as their high swelling capability by solvent. The loaded material can be released slowly when immersing the films in 0.9% normal saline. Meanwhile, the PAH-D/PSS multilayer films could deposit directly on either hydrophilic or hydrophobic substrates such as quartz, polytetrafluoroethylene, polystyrene, poly(ethylene terephthalate), and polypropylene. The microgel films of PAH-D/PSS are expected to be widely useful as. matrixes for loading functional guest materials and even for controlled release.
