The controlled incorporation of cyclodextrin-methacrylate in PMMA nanogels is described.
The incorporation of CD-MA and cross-linking of PMMA nanogels leads to reduction of particle size.
Particles with hydrodynamic radii ranging from 363 nm to 36 nm in aqueous phase are obtained.
The PMMA nanogels with CD-MA are swellable in water and nonpolar solvents.
Controlled complexation of guests in dependence on CD-MA content and degree of cross-linking.
