Porous bead copolymers of di(methacryloyloxymethyl)naphthalene and methyl methacrylate have been synthesized using a mixture of isooctane and toluene as a diluent of the monomer system. The copolymers obtained exhibit similar specific surface areas and enhanced specific pore volume as compared to those prepared in the presence of dodecane and toluene. Their submicroscopic structure is visualized as first‐order organization of microglobules similarly to PPS‐type styrene–divinylbenzene copolymers.
