Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>Poly(divinylbenzene‐<italic>alt</italic>‐maleic anhydride) nanoparticles with a narrow distribution and a diameter of 30 nm act as novel stabilizers in the Pickering emulsion polymerization of styrene. The hydrolyzed PDMNPs with NaHCO₃ aqueous solution exhibited a very effective emulsification performance and a remarkably high emulsification efficiency. Raspberry‐like PDMNPs/PS composite polymer particles have been successfully fabricated via copolymerization of pendant vinyl groups of PDMNPs with styrene. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh17zzb186" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
