Microencapsulation of citronella oil for solar-activated controlled release as an insect repellent

This study investigates the functionalization of titanium dioxide nanoparticles on the surface of polymeric microcapsules as a mean to control the release of encapsulated citronella through solar radiation.This allows for the release of a mosquito repellent without human intervention, as the sunligh...
