Abstract

In this study, polylactide and polystyrene microparticles have been prepared by emulsion solvent evaporation method. Effects of polymer nature, stirring speed, emulsifier, and concentration of the components on the size, size distribution and morphology of polymeric microparticles have been investigated. 11-Acryloyl-aminoundecanoic acid and its polymer poly(11-acryloyl-aminoundecanoic acid) were tested for comparison with traditional emulsifiers such as sodium dodecylsulfate. Interfacial tension measurement was applied to compare these emulsifiers. Dynamic light scattering and scanning electron microscopy were used to analyze microparticles. Polylactide/polystyrene composite microparticles have been prepared as well; their surface morphology has been studied.
