## Abstract Styrene/hexadecane miniemulsions were polymerized at 50°C using a redox initiator. The miniemulsions and their corresponding latexes were characterized in terms of size, polymerization rate, and surface properties. The resulting data were analyzed to elucidate the miniemulsion stabiliza
## Abstract The polymerization kinetics of a RAFT‐mediated radical polymerization inside submicron particles (30 < __D__~p~ < 300 nm) is considered. When the time fraction of active radical period, __ϕ__~A~, is larger than ca. 1%, the polymerization rate increases with reducing particle size, as fo
The addition of a monomer soluble polymer to an emulsion was found to slow the effects of Ostwald ripening and impart diffusional stability to the droplets. Droplet nucleation was found to be the dominant nucleation mechanism in the polymerization of these polymerstabilized miniemulsions (as disting
