A modelistic study of the molecular weight distribution (MWD) formed in emulsion polymerization that involves chain transfer to polymer is conducted, by focusing our attention to the effect of very small reaction volume on the formed MWD. In emulsion polymerization, a polymer radical that causes pol
When highly reactive chain transfer agents with low water solubilities (e.g., long chain thiols) are used in emulsion polymerizations, transport of the chain transfer agent (CTA) from the monomer droplets to the polymer particles can become diffusion limited. Consequently, the concentration of CTA i
