A series of miniemulsion systems based on styrene/azobisisobutyronitrile in the presence of poly(methyl methacrylate-b-2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) as a surfactant and hexadecane (HD) as a cosurfactant were developed. For comparison, a series of pseudoconventional emulsions also were carried
The Mettler RC1 calorimeter was used to measure the rate of polymerization of conventional emulsion, homogenized emulsion, and miniemulsion polymerizations of styrene initiated with 2,2Π-azobis(2-methylbutyronitrile). It was noted that the rate of polymerization significantly increased as the surfac
## Abstract Miniemulsion copolymerization of styrene/__n__βbutyl acrylate was investigated as a means of encapsulating hydrophilic titanium dioxide (TiO~2~) in a filmβforming polymer. Dispersion studies of the TiO~2~ were first carried out to determine the choice of stabilizer, its concentration, a
