In addition, the method for producing plate-like polymer fine particles of the present invention is simple and easy to operate, and allows the plate-like polymer fine particles of the present invention to be obtained uniformly and reliably. Thickness and size (long pieces) can be easily controlled and finer (e.g. average thickness of about 0.5 mm) can be easily controlled.
It is possible to easily produce plate-shaped polymer fine particles with a length of 1 μm (long pieces are about 10 times the thickness), and furthermore, cross-linked polymers that are stable against heat and solvents can also be formed into plate shapes. Furthermore, it has the advantage that there is a very wide range of choices for the type of polymer.
