Abstract
An investigation of photopolymerization in an isothermal and continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) was made. The existence of multiple steady states induced by gel effects was demonstrated theoretically and experimentally. This multiple steady state problem is presented in relation to reactor stability and control. Also, the relative behavior of the batch and CSTR systems is discussed.

The stability characteristics of an aerosol reactor in a continuous stirred tank configuration have been investigated theoretically. Three dimensionless parameters, the surface tension group C, reaction rate group R, and residence time group O,, suffice to determine the dynamic behavior of this syst
