Solid particles can adhere to liquid-liquid interfaces. When emulsion droplets are stabilized in such a way one speaks of a Pickering emulsion. The supracolloidal structures formed by this interface driven assembly process can be referred to as colloidosomes. Herein we explain the concept of colloidosome formation, their deformation behavior upon evaporation of their inner phase. Moreover, we describe Pickering miniemulsion and suspension polymerization processes, both yielding armored raspberry-type core-shell composite polymer particles.
