seeded emulsion polymerisation

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.14339
Emulsion polymerization with seed particles are formed in situ or added initially to the polymerizing mixture.
Note: Under certain conditions the seed particles capture enough radical species from the aqueous phase so that no new particles are formed. In such polymerization, the number of growing particles is equal to the number of seed particles.
