title: Novel low-molecular-weight-gelator-based microcapsules with controllable morphology and temperature responsiveness.
abstract: A new type of microcapsules with controllable morphology is presented. They are based on a low-molecular-weight gelator and can be switched from temperature-stable to temperature-responsive by simply modifying the preparation method.
