Abstract: The stimuli-responsive carrier material is an emerging type of composite material, which can achieve self-regulated controlled-release in response to the change of enzyme, redox, pH, photoirradiation, temperature, electric field, magnetic field and ionic strength in external environment. Materials of this type exhibit excellent advantages for drug controlled-releasing and extensive application prospect. Therefore, they have attracted worldwide interest in the field of medicine, food and environmental engineering. The research progress in the field of stimuli-responsive carrier materials and their application as carrier of pesticides were discussed. Potential problems of employing stimuli-responsive carrier materials as pesticides controlled release carriers and its prospective were also discussed. Stimuli-responsive carrier materials, including enzyme-, pH-, redox-, photoirradiation- and temperature-responsive carrier materials, have been widely used in the field of drug delivery, purification, diagnostics, and immobilization of enzymes and cells. The application of stimuli-responsive carrier materials in pesticide formulation process is still in the basic stage, and need to be further studied in the aspects of commercialization and scale application.
