A large group of industrially important polymerization processes is carried out in dispersed systems. These differ with respect to their physical nature, mechanism particle formation, morphology, size, charge, types interparticle interactions, and many other aspects. Polymer dispersions, polymers derived from systems, are used diverse areas such as paints, adhesives, microelectronics, medicine, cosmetics, biotechnology, others. Frequently, the same names for different products or products. The document contains a list recommended terms definitions necessary unambiguous description processes, products, parameters, characteristic features relevant
