We have investigated the origin of a specific polymerization locus that yielded copolymer particles with a bimodal gel permeation chromatographic profile in the early stage of miniemulsion polymerization of styrene (St) with C$$_{12}$$DMAEMA. The formation of particles by miniemulsion polymerization using C$$_{12}$$DMAEMA was investigated as a function of the polymerization time ($$t$$$$_{rm p}$$), and was compared with that using the non-polymerizable surfactant CTAB. GPC and elemental analysis indirectly predicted two different polymerization loci in the St/C$$_{12}$$DMAEMA/V50 polymerization system. Time-resolved SANS was used to directly observe and examine the specific polymerization loci in the miniemulsion polymerization solutions. The droplets formed in St/C$$_{12}$$DMAEMA/V50/PSt hydrophobe at the initial stage of the polymerization were not fully stabilized by C$$_{12}$$DMAEMA and poly(C$$_{12}$$DMAEMA-ran-St), and were found to build up the large aggregates. The spherical droplets were stabilized later in tp $$>$$ 20 min by forming a homogeneous dispersion in the water phase. Porod analysis of the power law scattering observed by SANS provided direct evidence for the specific polymerization loci, which appeared in the early stage of the polymerization system of St/C$$_{12}$$DMAEMA/V50/PSt hydrophobe on the surface of the droplet, and was the origin of the bimodal peaks in the GPC chromatogram.
