In this project, yolk-shell microspheres were fabricated as sound absorbing particles to be incorporated into paint and coating systems. The yolk-shell microspheres synthesis process consists of two major parts: (i) fabrication of polymer microspheres polystyrene copolymer poly4-vinylpyridine (PS-co...
