| Description | Reaction parameters of dispersion polymerization, such as the monomer type and its concentration, polarity of the reaction medium (solvents) characterized by its solubility parameter value, molecular weight, type and concentration of steric stabilizer and initiator, affect the size and distribution of the particles resulting typically in the micron- or even submicron-size range. The effect of the solvent power of the reaction medium (the difference in solubility parameters between the polymer and solvents) is probably the most intriguing. Applications of hydrophilic microspheres as supports of various proteins are given. |
