## Abstract The effect of the geometrical and operational parameters on the mixing characteristics of a CouetteβTaylor vortex flow reactor (CTVFR) were investigated and were correlated with the same parameters by using the tankβinβseries model. Continuous emulsion polymerization of styrene was cond
## It has been demonstrated earlier that a Pulsed Packed Column is a suitable reactor for continuous emulsion polymerisation of styrene. The emulsion polymerisation of viny2 acetate follows a different mechanism, which renders the process more liable to instabilities when carried out in a continuo
## Abstract The kinetics of continuous emulsion polymerization of styrene were studied theoretically on the basis of the authors' batch reaction model, and a new reaction model was proposed for continuous operation. The validity of the model was tested by experiments conducted with stirred tank rea
The purpose of this paper is to clarify the effect of stirring on the course of emulsion polymerization of, for example, styrene. It establishes the existence of an optimum range of stirring speed and three important factors which must be considered in carrying out emulsion polymerization. (1) Stirr
