Composite nanoparticles of polyester resin with pigment were prepared by phase-inversion emulsification followed by dry-in-liquid method.
In the experiment, the effects of the impeller speed at the phase inversion, the concentration of emulsifier, and the amphiphilic solvent on the characteristics of composite particles containing carbon black as a colorant were investigated.
Monodispersed composite particles with the mean diameter of 120 nm were able to be prepared by using polyoxyethylen lauryl ether as an emulsifier and acetone as an amphiphilic solvent.
