Present study refers to the analysis of the matrix polarity effect on polymer dispersions containing crystal violet lactone thermochromic complex. Thus, the synthesis by miniemulsion polymerization of blue colored latexes based on different monomer types using polyvinyl alcohol as colloid, was followed. The obtained coloured latexes were characterized and their thermochromic behavior was verified.
