P(St-co-MMA) microspheres were prepared by photoinitiated dispersion copolymerization of styrene (St) with methyl methacrylate (MMA) in a mixture of ethanol and water (Vethanol/Vwater=7/3) using 2,2-Dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (BDK) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as the initiator and stabilizer, respectively. The effects of reaction time, the monomer ratio of St and MMA, amount of PVP and light intensity on the yield and diameter of P(St-co-MMA) microspheres were studied. Ag+ ions were reduced to silver by UV light using AgNO3 as metal sources in the presence of P(St-co-MMA) microspheres. At the same time, Ag nanoparticles were located to the surfaces of P(St-co-MMA) microspheres. The resulting composite microspheres were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), laser light scattering (LLS) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). It was found that the diameter of P(St-co-MMA) microspheres can be controlled in range from 500 to 800 nm. The composite materials of silver nanoparticles/ P(St-co-MMA) microspheres were successfully synthesized. The mean diameter of silver nanoparticles was about 20 nm., P(St-co-MMA) microspheres were prepared by photoinitiated dispersion copolymerization of styrene (St) with methyl methacrylate (MMA) in a mixture of ethanol and water (Vethanol/Vwater=7/3) using 2,2-Dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (BDK) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as the initiator and stabilizer, respectively.
