In emulsion polymerization, a limited degree of particle coagulation may occur. Particle coagulation is caused by a loss of colloidal stabilization when the surface coverage of emulsifier on the particles drops below a critical value. It has been demonstrated experimentally in a previous article tha
## A kinetic model has been developed to simulate the shear-induced coagulation process during semibatch seeded emulsion polymerization of acrylic monomers. DLVO theory was used to calculate the potential energy barrier against coagulation of the latex particles. The coagulation rate constant was
