The dispersion of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and its suspension polymerization were used as models to elaborate the evolution of particle size average and size distribution in the course of suspension polymerization. The underlying mechanisms for the occurrence of the dynamic and static steady states in the population of drops were defined and their effects on the evolution of drop/particle size average and size distributions were examined. The characteristic intervals of suspension polymerizations (transition, steady‐state, growth, and identification) were elaborated. The formation of satellite droplets and their evolution in the course of polymerization were also discussed.
