Abstract
ABSTRACTWithin this study, a time saving photo‐initiated miniemulsion polymerization process (duration of polymerization was 15 min) was established in order to encapsulate a paraffin wax with an acrylate polymer shell. The obtained freeze‐dried latex was an off‐white powder exhibiting spherical particles with mean diameters around 400 nm and a concentration of paraffin wax around 56%. Mixing the reaction product with a UV‐curable resin matrix resulted in thermotropic overheating protection glazings with high light‐shielding efficiency. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.
