This work reports a simple and robust strategy for synthesis of polydopamine nanocapsules (PDA NCs). First, polymer assemblies were synthesized by a γ-ray-induced liquid–liquid (H2O–acrylate) interface polymerization strategy, in the absence of any surfactants. 1H nuclear magnetic resonance analysis and molecular dynamics simulation reveal that the generation of polymer assemblies largely depends on the hydrophilicity of acrylate and gravity of the oligomers at the interface. By virtue of the spherical structure and mechanic stability of the polymer assemblies, PDA NCs are next prepared by the interfacial polymerization of dopamine onto the assemblies, followed by the removal of templates by using ethanol. The polydopamine nanocapsules are shown to load and release ciprofloxacin (CIP, a model drug), such that the CIP-loaded PDA NCs are able to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli.
