Microemulsion polymerizat ion is effective in producing transparent stable micro latexes

which have potential applications

such as in coating

catalyst or drug delivery. In this paper

the new progress of high solid content microemulsion polymerization was reviewed. Two approaches were reviewed: one using high effective surfactant system; the other approach employing methods to improve microemulsion polyme rization. The development tendency of high solid content microemulsion polyme rization was also prospected.
