Abstract

Abstract Nonspherical composite particles having multiple dents on particle surface were synthesized for the first time by seeded soap-free emulsion copolymerization of styrene and divinylbenzene (crosslinker) on spherical, linear poly(methyl methacrylate) seed particles. The number and depth of the dents were controllable by varying polymerization formulation.
