Electronic paper based on the controlled motion of electrophoretic particles appears thus promising since it combines the advantages of the usual paper and the capacity to refresh information on the same support like the more common LCD or OLED technologies.In this work the main goal is to rationalize and improve the ink synthesis. We performed the synthesis of hybrid particles by using an organic dispersion technique in aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents leading to electrophoretic particles with a good size control over a large range (from 75nm to 20�m) and a good stability. In order to obtain the full color panel, the encapsulation of several inorganic pigments was achieved by using the same technique.By this way, several inks, specially designed for electrophoretic measurements in organic media have been obtained through a one pot synthesis.
