The precipitation polymerization of commercial divinylbenzene in acetonitrile containing up to 40 vol. % toluene or other cosolvents is shown to produce novel porous monodisperse poly(divinylbenzene) microspheres. These microspheres have diameters between 4 and 7 mm, total pore volumes of up to 0.52

Monodisperse poly(chloromethylstyrene-co-divinylbenzene-80) microspheres of 4-6-m diameter were prepared by precipitation copolymerization in neat acetonitrile and in acetonitrile/toluene mixtures. These particles have clean surfaces due to the absence of any added stabilizer and up to 0.5 cm 3 /g p
Precipitation copolymerizations of five mono-vinyl methacrylic monomers including methyl methacrylate (MMA), butyl methacrylate (BMA), dodecyl methacrylate (DMA), glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), and hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) with divinylbenzene (DVB), in a wide range of comonomer composition, we
Narrow disperse micron-range divinylbenzene-maleic anhydride microspheres have been prepared in near quantitative yields using precipitation polymerization. A variety of solvents were investigated for use as the reaction medium with a 40 : 60 mixture of methyl ethyl ketone and heptane providing the
