“…15 In their work, the authors used talc, barium sulphate, kaolin clay and aluminium oxide in the suspension polymerization of a variety of monomers. Since then Pickering hetero-phase polymerization has been developed further and now includes mini-emulsion, [16][17][18] dispersion 19,20 and emulsion polymerization processes, [21][22][23][24][25][26][27] using a variety of monomers and with a range of fillers, such as silica, laponite clay, magnetite, titanium dioxide, graphene oxide. 28 One driver for the development of heterogeneous Pickering polymerization processes is that they do not require molecular surfactants, offering a big advantage to the paint industry as surfactant migration often deteriorates the performance of coatings.…”
