A novel thermo‐induced self‐bursting microcapsule with magnetic‐targeting property is developed (see figure). The Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles‐embedded PNIPAM shell enables magnetic‐targeting and thermo‐induced self‐bursting of the microcapsules. Lipophilic chemicals dissolved in the oil core are completely released with the burst release of the encapsulated oil.
