“…[5][6][7] As shown in recent studies, a variety of chemical and physicochemical methods, including emulsion/ interfacial/precipitation polymerization strategies, spraydrying methods, phase inversion technique, self-assembly techniques, so template techniques, and hard template techniques, have been employed to prepare HPSs. In the self-assembly protocol, 6,8,16 the block copolymers are oen used as precursors to prepare hollow spheres and a sequence of steps have to be followed: synthesis of a block copolymer composed of a cross-linkable block and a degradable block, micellization, cross-linking the shell block, and nally, removing the core block by degradation chemically or biologically.
