Spherical crosslinked organic particles exhibit a good dispersibility in
thermoplastic resins, thermosetting resins, paints, coatings, cosmetics,
rubbers, and toners and carriers employed in electrostatic development.
Highly efficient methods for preparing these crosslinked organic particles
are provided. Suspensions of crosslinked organic particles have excellent
handling properties, and are highly blendable with other components.
Highly efficient methods for preparing these suspensions are also
provided. The spherical crosslinked organic particles have an average
particle size of 0.1-500 .mu.m, and can be prepared by emulsifying in
water using an emulsifying agent, a fluid composition containing (A) an
organic compound that has at least 2 aliphatically unsaturated bonds in
each molecule, (B) a silicon-containing organic compound that has at least
2 silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in each molecule, (C) an hydrosilylation
reaction catalyst, crosslinking the fluid composition by carrying out an
hydrosilylation reaction, and thereafter removing water.
