Polymerizable styrenic surfactants (surfmers) and nonreactive analogs, have been applied in emulsion copolymerization of acrylic monomers in a seeded semibatch process. Stable core-shell latexes with low levels of coagulum and controlled particle size have been obtained; some of them, with either st
The polymerization of acrylic acid in bulk is controlled by linear plurimolecular H-bonded aggregates of the monomer which lead to the formation of a syndiotactic polymer. Polar solvents do not dissociate these aggregates unless high dilutions are reached. In contrast, "normal" kinetics are observed
A new apparatus to measure the equilibrium solvent activity in a multiphase system containing a particulated polymer is presented. An experimental procedure to determine the monomer partitioning in typical emulsion copolymerization systems is developed; the method is devised in a way that no phase s
