The present invantion provides a resin particle having many recesses on the surface thereof, which has solvent resistance and heat resistance. More specifically, the present invantion provides a resin particle having many recesses on the surface thereof which is obtained by using a seed particle, wherein a seed particle component in the resin particle has a crosslinked structure. Since the resin particle having many recesses on the surface thereof of the present invention is excellent in solvent resistance and heat resistance in addition to light diffusing properties, the resin particle is appropriate for use, for example, in not only cosmetics containing silicone oil and the like in a preparation, a light diffusing film and a light diffusing sheet prepared by dispersing resin particles as a light diffusing agent in an organic solvent such as 2-butanone and the like in a production process, and a light diffusing plate prepared by kneading at a high shear force the resin patticles as a light diffusing agent with polystyrene or polymethyl methacrylate and the like which melts at a high temperature of approximately 300° C. in a production process. |
