Dodecylhemiester of maleic anhydride is a very good anionic stabilizer for the emulsion polymerization of styrene. Rather high solid contents may be produced. Up to about 70% of the surfactant can be grafted onto the surface of the particles. Upon floculation with calcium salt, only 3% of the surfac
## Abstract The particle nucleation mechanism in emulsion polymerization of styrene with a novel polyester emulsifier, 5βsulfoisophthalic acid dimethyl ester sodium saltβmodified tetracarboxylic acidβterminated polyester (SMTAPE), was investigated. The consumption of SMTAPE micelles was monitored b
The emulsion polymerization of styrene was studied using the nonionic surfactant Triton X-405 (octylphenoxy polyethoxy ethanol). Two separate nucleation periods were noted in these polymerizations resulting in bimodal final latex particle size distributions. The partitioning of the surfactant betwee
