Abstract
Summary: Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanocapsules and nanotubes were selectively synthesized by microemulsion polymerisation using Ξ²βcyclodextrin (Ξ²βCD) as a nanoporogen. Iron(III) chloride (FeCl~3~) was used as a structureβdirecting agent to fabricate polymer nanotubes. In addition, the average pore size of the PAN nanocapsules and nanotubes could be controlled with the concentration of Ξ²βCD.
