A simple and versatile strategy is developed for one-step fabrication of uniform polymeric microparticles with controllable highly interconnected hierarchical porous structures. Monodisperse water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsions, methyl methacrylate, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, glycidyl methacrylate as the monomer-containing oil phase, are generated from microfluidics used constructing microparticles. Due to partially miscible property oil/aqueous phases, monodisperse W/O/W emulsions...
