Abstract
Micron-sized, monodisperse polystyrene (PS)/glycidyl methacrylate-divinylbe nzene copolymer core/shell composite particles having epoxy groups in the s hells were produced by seeded dispersion copolymerization of glycidyl metha crylate and divinylbenzene in an ethanol/water medium with 1.65-mum-sized. monodisperse PS seed particles. By chemical modifications of epoxy groups w ith sodium hydrogensulfite and dimethylamine, composite polymer particles h aving sulfonate and dimethylamino groups, respectively, in the shells were prepared.
