The influence of the content of inert component in monomer phase on the parameters of porous structure (specific pore volume, Vs, specific surface area, Ss, total porosity, P, pore size distribution and pore diameter dp) of the copolymers of glycidyl methacrylate, GMA, and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, EGDMA, obtained by suspension polymerization has been studied. The content of standard inert component (cyclohexanol/dodecanol) was changed by substituting dodecanol with one of the aliphatic alcohols with 4, 8, 10, 14 or 16 C‐atoms and by varying the ratio of aliphatic alcohol in inert component. The results obtained showed that it was possible by changing type and ratio of aliphatic alcohol in inert component to influence the parameters of pore structure of poly(GMA‐co‐EGDMA) copolymers significantly and that by using tetradecanol or hexadecanol it was possible to obtain these copolymers with pore diameters larger than 200 nm.
