Using the method of suspension crosslinking polymerization and epichlorohydrin as the crosslinking agent, starch microspheres have been synthesized. And the effects of reacting parameters, including the surfactant concentration, stirring speed, two phases viscosities and densities on the microspheres mean size (18–36μm) are also discussed. One equation is deduced to demonstrate these effects:\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ {\rm X = K} \cdot \frac{{{\rm (U}_{\rm O} {\rm /U}_{\rm W} {\rm)}^{{\rm 0}{\rm .03}} }}{{{\rm C}^{{\rm 0}{\rm .04}} {\rm (D}_{\rm O} {\rm /D}_{\rm W} {\rm)}^{{\rm 3}{\rm .45}} {\rm N}^{{\rm 0}{\rm .002}} }} $$\end{document}
