Ambient temperature synthesis of well‐defined microspheres via precipitation polymerization initiated by UV‐irradiation

Abstract

Ambient temperature UV initiated precipitation polymerization is demonstrated to be an efficient avenue to well-defined microspheres. It is demonstrated that the microsphere size can be tailored by the choice and concentration of photo initiator as well as reaction temperature.
