Self-exploding microcapsules are core-shell capsules that consist of a degradable microgel core surrounded by a semi-permeable membrane. When the microgel core degrades, the swelling pressure increases and finally the rupture of the surrounding membrane leads to release of the encapsulated species. This type of capsul…
