  • Table 1 shows the amount of each material added (parts by mass) and the results of each measurement or evaluation.
  • the variation coefficient of the residual void ratio after the press test was 0.006 or less. This indicates that the press test method is a highly accurate test method.
  • the hollow particles obtained in Comparative Examples 1 to 3 had a low void retention rate after the press test, were inferior in pressure resistance, and had a low void retention rate after injection molding.
  • Comparative Examples 1 and 2 due to the composition of the polymerizable monomers used, a shell with excellent strength was not formed, and the thickness of the shell was thin. .
  • Comparative Example 3 the same polymerizable monomer as in Comparative Example 2 was used and the shell thickness was set to the same extent as in the Examples. was inferior. From this, it can be seen that in order to sufficiently improve the pressure resistance of the hollow particles, it is necessary to adjust not only the shell thickness but also the composition of the polymerizable monomers used for forming the shell.

  • Examples 1 to 6 a combination of an acrylic monomer and a hydrocarbon monomer was used as the polymerizable monomer, and a chain hydrocarbon solvent was used as the hydrophobic solvent, thereby improving the uniformity of the shell. As a result, it is presumed that pressure resistance was improved.
  • the proportion of particles with a circularity of 0.85 or less was 10% by mass or less, The proportion of particles having only one or two hollow portions was 90% by mass or more.
