Abstract

Novel composite graphene oxide (GO)/poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) multilayer capsules have been fabricated by layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly. They were found to possess unique permeability properties compared to traditional LbL capsules. These hybrid capsules showed special “core–shell” loading property for encapsulation of dual drugs simultaneously into the core and shell of the capsules respectively.
