Hypothesis: Hollow particles have been used in a variety of applications and many methods have been developed. Hollow particles templated from Pickering emulsions due to nanoparticle adsorption at the oil-water interface usually suffer from the collapsed morphologies and low thermal and solvent stability and enhancement of the shell can significantly improve the hollow particle performance. Experiments: This paper reports hollow particles templated from Pickering emulsion droplets in combination with UV photopolymerization. The Pickering emulsions were stabilized by functional silica nanoparticles at the 0/W interface and the oil phase contains photosensitive reactants, initiator, catalyst and volatile solvents. The effects of nanoparticles concentration, 0/W volume ratio, pH, dispersion speed and time on the stabilization of Pickering emulsion were firstly carried out and the properties of hollow particles formed by traditional interfacial crosslinking and UV photopolymerization were systematically investigated. Findings: Compared with previous interfacial crosslinking method, the UV photopolymerization method gives much more robust shells and we show in the paper that the hollow particles have much higher solvent resistance and thermal stability. The enhancement of thermal stability and solvent resistance of the hollow particle could extend its applications to more harsh fields such as self-healing coatings used in deep sea conditions.
