TEM micrographs (scalebar = 100 nm) and the particle-length distribution of polystyrene latices obtained from polymerization in MagSurf stabilized droplets at a different, external B-field a-d). The distribution of the diameters and lengths of the respective particles is shown in ai-di (ai:σ= 100.843; bi:σ= 41.634; ci:σ= 84.213; di:σ= 79.414.) The aspect ratio is a nonlinear function of the magnetic field strength e). Comparison of the volume of the spherical polymer particles (black curve) and 9 T (red dotted line) assuming a cylindrical shape f).
