Herein, nanocomposite microencapsulated abamectin (A-G-G) have been prepared by composite coacervation method with gelatin and gum arabic as the wall materials and abamectin (A–W) as core material. The formation mechanism of A-G-G was determined by fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and other characterization methods. Then, polybutylene succinate (PBS)/A-G-G composite films with different contents of A-G-G microcapsules were prepared. The effects of adding A-G-G microcapsules on the mechanical and sustained-release properties of the composite films were studied. Results show that there is a strong interaction between the CO groups in PBS and free OH of the A-G-G microcapsules. With an increase in the A-G-G microcapsule content, the elongation at the break of composite films increases significantly. When the A-G-G content is 15 %, the elongation at break of the composite films reaches 178.6 ± 6.26 %. The maximum water absorption is 329 ± 5.84 %. Overall, the PBS/A-G-G composite films exhibit good slow-release performance.
