In this work, a simple and flexible method for the fabrication of chitosan microcapsules with controllable structures and functions via the interfacial cross-linking reaction of the water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion templates is developed. The interfacial cross- linking reactions of chitosan and terephthalaldehyde (TPA) in W/O emulsion templates are comprehensively studied. The interfacial cross-linking reactions of the droplet templates in both batchwise and continuous conditions are studied. A poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS droplet-capture microfluidic chip is fabricated to investigate the interfacial reaction in continuous conditions online. In this study, the size and shell thickness of the microcapsules are affected by the preparation condition, such as the template size, emulsifier concentration, TPA concentration, and cross-linking time. Moreover, the size and shell thickness changes of chitosan microcapsules prepared in continuous conditions are much faster than those prepared in batchwise conditions. By regulating the preparation parameters, the microcapsules with controllable structures are fabricated in both batchwise and continuous conditions. The drug release behaviors of the microcapsules with controllable structures are studied. Furthermore, by adding magnetic nanoparticles to the aqueous solution, magnetic-responsive microcapsules are fabricated easily. This work provides valuable guidance for the controllable fabrication of chitosan microcapsules with designed structures and functions via single emulsion templates.
