✦ Synopsis

The emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate was studied a t 50Β°C. It was found that the rate of polymerization was proportional to the 0.5 power of the initiator concentration and the 0.25 power of the number of particles. The number of particles was proportional to the power 0.5 f 0.05 of the emulsifier concentration, but independent of the initiator concentration. The limiting viscosity number of the polymers produced waa independent of the initiator concentration and number of polymer particles. It is suggested that the mechanism of vinyl acetate emulsion polymerization is similar to that of vinyl chloride. The linearity of the conversion-versus-time curve is explained as being due partly to a decrease in the desorption rate of radicals from the polymer particles and partly to a decrease in the termination rate constant.

## Abstract The kinetics of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate emulsion polymerization are reexamined. The validity of Ugelstad's model for systems with high desorption rate is confirmed by simulating conversion histories for both systems at different initiator concentrations and particle numbers. On
