Nonspherical polystyrene (PS)/poly (n ‐butyl methacrylate) (PBMA) composite particles with uneven surfaces were produced by seeded dispersion polymerization of BMA with 1.65‐μm, monodisperse, spherical PS seed particles. The composite particles consisted of a PS core and an incomplete PBMA shell. The formation mechanism of such nonspherical particles was discussed. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
