• ][19]. There are many reports about the surface modification of QDs in the literature, for example, by functionalizing QDs with small molecules, e.g., sulfanylpropanoic acid, coating QDs with a silica shell, and encapsulating QDs within micelle polymer nanoparticles. Amongst the most-studied

• ; TPO catalytic; Introduction In recent years miniemulsions have been studied intensively [1][2][3]. Polymeric nanoparticles [1][2] from homo- or copolymers [3] as well as hybrid materials [3][4] such as magnetic [5][6][7][8] or silica/polymer nanoparticles [9][10] have been synthesized by this
