✦ Synopsis

The influence of the initiator structure on the reaction process was investigated. In addition to the initiator concentration, its molar mass and the content of perester groups in the single molecule are determining factors that influence the course of reaction. Quantitative relationships are shown. The initiator is bonded by grafting reactions on the surface of the latex particles. The grafted moiety is dependent on the initiator structure and reaction temperature. Latices with polydispersities lower than 1.1 are obtained.
