“…The biphasic heterogeneous systems contain a mixture of two immiscible liquids [51]. The industrial polymerizations are mainly carried out in a normal oil-in-water (O/W) system or an inverse water-in-oil (W/O) system [52,53]. Various polymer structures, including block [27,54], star [55][56][57] and brush [58][59][60], were synthesized in water-dispersed media (microemulsion [61][62][63], miniemulsion [64][65][66], and emulsion [67][68][69][70]).…”

In the last decade, unceasing interest in atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) has been noted, especially in aqueous dispersion systems. Emulsion or miniemulsion is a preferred environment for industrial polymerization due to easier heat dissipation and lower production costs associated with the use of water as a dispersant. The main purpose of this review is to summarize ATRP methods used in emulsion media with different variants of initiating systems. A comparison of a dual over single catalytic approache by interfacial and ion pair catalysis is presented. In addition, future development directions for these methods are suggested for better use in biomedical and electronics industries.

In this article, recent developments in microemulsion polymerization for polymeric particles preparation are summarized. Polymeric particles with hydrophilic, hydrophobic, and amphiphilic nature can be synthesized by means of microemulsion polymerization employing different formulations. The types, the amounts, and the nature of the used surfactant, solvent, and cosolvent (if any); mixing rate; temperature; the types and the amounts of cross‐linkers (if any); and the nature of monomers and polymers are very important parameters in microemulsion polymerization determining the size and the properties of polymeric particles. These parameters that are effective in the compartmentalization of the reaction medium and their effect on size of the prepared particles are summarized.

Heterogeneous polymerizations in aqueous media remain an active area of research with an emphasis on control over polymer architecture and molecular weight. Previously established methods to perform reversible deactivation radical polymerizations have been expanded and will be covered in this article. Recent strategies employ novel catalysts, functional surfactants, and multistep processes to yield stable, and in some cases, high solids content, latexes through a variety of nonconventional chemistries. Moreover, polymerization‐induced self‐assembly has been developed to yield high‐order morphologies in aqueous dispersions in mild conditions. Photoinduced polymerization techniques have seen increasing interest owing to the “green” benefits of using light as a stimulus for polymerization. The goals in this field remain to provide control over polymerizations in aqueous dispersed media while reducing both monetary and environmental costs. This article will cover recent developments in producing water‐based polymer dispersions with control over nanoparticle morphology and functionality and macromolecular structure.
