## Abstract The high water solubility of vinyl acetate (VAc) monomer increases the need for a good initiator system to speed up the polymerization and remove unreacted monomers. Ultrasonic energy can be used to initiate VAc redox emulsion polymerization in the absence of an inert gas and with sodiu
The kinetics of bridging flocculation of polystyrene latex (PSL) particles induced by addition of excess polyethylene oxide (PEO) in the initial stage was studied using standardized mixing flow generated in an end-over-end rotation apparatus. To clarify the effect of the rate of polymer supply, floc
