Cross-linked polymer microspheres have potential applications in many fields. Compared with seed polymerization, two-part dispersion polymerization is a very attractive method for preparing micron-sized cross-linked microspheres. However, the current dispersion polymerization would be adversely affected by the addition of more than 1 wt% of cross-linker at a time and even agglutination occurred. In this study, a facile method for the preparation of highly cross-linked microspheres by two-step dispersion polymerization of a chain transfer agent has been developed. The relationship between cross-linker and transfer has been studied in detail, and microspheres can be simultaneously maintained by adding the cross-linker ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) at concentrations of up to 10%.
