The transparent and colorless microbeads, prepared by redispersing the original samples in water and drying again, were only used to obtain the POM images shown in Figure 1 b and the Supporting Information, Figure S3, while other POM images and all of the SEM images in this work were obtained with the original as-prepared microspheres.
