Disclosed are a heat-expandable polyvinylidene chloride microsphere and its preparation method. The preparation method comprises: by weight, dissolving 250 to 550 parts of an aqueous-phase polymerization inhibitor, 20 to 100 parts of a dispersant, and 3 to 15 parts of a co-dispersing monomer in deionized water, adjusting a pH value of the solution and cooling the solution to obtain an aqueous phase for later use; dissolving 5 to 15 parts of a cross-linking agent and 20 to 45 parts of an initiator in 1000 to 2000 parts of a mixed monomer, and cooling the solution to obtain an oil phase for later use; mixing and homogenizing the aqueous phase and the oil phase with stirring to obtain a homogenized mixed solution; adding 300 to 550 parts of a foaming agent to the homogenized mixed solution and homogenizing the resulting solution with stirring to obtain a homogenized mixed solution containing the foaming agent; reacting the homogenized mixed solution containing the foaming agent with stirring; at the end of the reaction, cooling to room temperature, filtering the resulting suspension to obtain filtrate, centrifuging and dehydrating the filtrate, and drying to obtain the heat-expandable polyvinylidene chloride microsphere product. This disclosure has the advantages of simple process and environmental friendliness, and the obtained product has good performance.

The present invention relates a microcapsule that comprises an active pharmaceutical ingredient and a polymeric shell comprised of polymeric materials such as polyether, polyester, polyamine, polyamide, polyurea, polyurethane, polythiocarbamate, and polythiocarbonate. The outer surface of shell comprises surface functional groups such as hydroxide, primary amine, carboxylic acid, or protected forms thereof. These surface functional groups may be reacted further with reactants to place specific organic groups on the surface of the microcapsule. Such microcapsules are prepared by a modified interfacial condensation polymerization.
