Abstract

Abstract : When rotational stirring was applied to an electrically neutral aqueous suspension containing negatively charged, monodispersed silica fine particles and a positively charged polyelectrolyte, monodispersed, spherical particles with a size of several hundred micrometers were obtained. Additionally, monodispersed, spherical particles with a vivid structural color can be prepared by incorporating a small amount of a black substance in the spherical particles.
