Computer simulations have shown that hydrophobic nanoparticles encapsulated in a deformable shell can repair surfaces in a manner that is similar to the way white blood cells work in the body.

The second group includes hydrophobic interactions between drugs and nanocarriers (e.g., polymeric micelles from amphiphilic block copolymers). Polymeric nanocarriers in the third group include ...

This was achieved by loading Cu nanoparticles onto hydrophobic and Ga-modified silica supports. The Ga-modified silica provided moderate acidity for methanol dehydration to DME, which hindered ...

Lipid nanocapsules are particularly suitable for the encapsulation of hydrophobic compounds and have shown promise in topical and oral drug delivery. Inorganic nanocapsules are fabricated using ...
