Abstract

Recently, nanostructured polymers have attracted much attention. One category of these nanostructured polymers is polymersomes, also termed as polymer vesicles. Due to their unique properties such as mechanical stability, tunable permeability and elastic properties, polymersomes have potential applications in designing and synthesis of drug delivery systems, nanoreactors, smart catalysts, and etc. In this article, polymersomes and their essential aspects have been introduced and their broad applications have been addressed.
