Abstract: By using suspension polymerization, molecularly imprinted porous poly(St-co-MAA) gels were prepared from styrene (St), methacrylic acid (MAA) monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as a crosslinking agent. The polymerization condition was chosen that the formation of solution complexes between methacrylic acid and the template(caffeine) prior to polymerization gave better results. Polymerization parameters such as mole ratio of monomers, concentration of monomers, concentration of a crosslinking agent and concentration of a blowing agent on the average particle size and pore size distribution were investigated
