## Abstract Biseeds emulsion polymerization was investigated with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polystyrene (PSt) as biseeds and styrene (St) as second‐stage monomer, as well as with thermodynamic analysis; namely, the principle of minimum interfacial free‐energy change was utilized to expla
