β¦ Synopsis
Polymerization of a methyl methacrylate micro-emulsion stabilized with a specially designed emulsiΓer was studied using potassium persulphate as initiator. The growth of polymer particles during the entire polymerization was detected with photon-correlation spectroscopy. It was found that the particle size continuously decreased with conversion, and that new polymer particles were still formed at very high conversion. The polymerization kinetics was also studied and is discussed on the basis of the polymerization mechanism. 1998 ( Society of Chemical Industry

The emulsion polymerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by ultrasound has been studied at ambient temperature using sodium lauryl sulfate as the surfactant. The investigation includes the: (1) nature and source of the free radical for the initiation process; (2) effects of different types of ca
Polymerization of methyl methacrylate was studied in an oil and water microemulsion stabilized with styrene 12-butinoyloxy-9-octadecenoic acid. During the polymerization the size change of the monomer-swollen particles with conversion was measured with photon correlation spectroscopy, and the hydrod
