title: Multilayered nanocomposite polymer colloids using emulsion polymerization stabilized by solid particles.
abstract: We report a versatile emulsion polymerization process in which solid nanoparticles are used as stabilizer, thereby replacing the role of surfactants, allowing for simple fabrication of armored nanocomposite polymer latexes. Use of a second conventional seeded emulsion polymerization step provides a straightforward route to more complex multilayered nanocomposite polymer colloids.
