Hydrophobic to superhydrophilic tuning of multifunctional sporopollenin for microcapsule and bio-composite applications

Sporopollenin sporoderm microcapsules (S-SMCs) are readily extracted from plant pollen grains and provide a renewable, biocompatible source of robust microparticles for a wide range of potential applications. While the lipidic/aromatic sporopollenin copolymer surface results in a predominantly hydro...
