A spherical model nebula with a deficiency of small-sized particles in regions adjoining the central star is considered. Scattering functions have been calculated from the Mie theory, assuming single scattering, for spherical grains of silicates and impure ice. For an inhomogeneous nebula there can be a substantial drop in the percentage polarization, especially in the red wavelength range.
