Predicted thickness of eCL (τeCL) as compared to the center (white dot) of hydrogel microparticle from experiment. The dashed circles indicate the predicted minimum microparticle sizes for touching the interface. The flow rates of the alginate solution, carrier oil emulsion, and extracting solution are 0.1, 6, and 6 ml/h, respectively, for both the experimental and modeling studies.
