At present, the methods for preparing the polymer hollow microspheres mainly comprise three types: micro-emulsion method, self-assembly method and template method. Micro-emulsion method: taking polydialkylsiloxane microemulsion as a template, adding disilicon-functional and trisilicon-functional organosilicon monomers, performing polycondensation around the surface of a template core to form polysiloxane microspheres with a core-shell structure, and removing the template core by solvent swelling dialysis to obtain the hollow microsphere molecular box. Self-assembly method: the amphiphilic block copolymer forms a core-shell type micelle or vesicle in a selective solvent, and the shell layer is solidified through a cross-linking reaction to obtain the polymer hollow microsphere with the cross-linked shell layer; or by using a layer-by-layer assembly technology, different substances with opposite charges are deposited on the colloidal particles layer by layer, and then the core part is removed to obtain the hollow microsphere. Template method: and on a stable template interface, polymerizing the reaction monomer around the template to form a polymer shell layer covering the template, and then removing the template by a calcining method or a solvent swelling method to obtain the polymer hollow microspheres. The methods for preparing the hollow polymer microspheres have the advantages that the core body template needs to be removed, the manual operation is complicated, and after the template is removed, the sphere is deformed due to swelling or collapsing in different degrees.
