## Abstract Polystyrene latex dispersions were prepared by emulsion polymerization, using a mixture of hydrophobically modified Inulin (INUTECยฎ SP1) and various nonionic surfactants (cosurfactants). Two series of nonionic surfactants were used, namely Synperonic A (C~13~~โ~~15~ alkyl chain with 7,
In this work, a seeded soapless emulsion polymerization was carried out with crosslinking (XL) poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as seeds, styrene as monomer, and potassium persulfate (K 2 S 2 O 8 ) as initiator to synthesize the PMMA XL-PS composite latex, which we knew as the latex interpenetrating
Based on the coagulative particle nucleation mechanism, a two-step model has been developed for the semi-batch surfactant-free emulsion polymerization of butyl acrylate, or butyl acrylate in the presence of a small amount of acrylic acid. During Stage 1, precursor particles are รrst formed by phase
The seeded batch emulsion copolymerization of styrene and acrylic acid was studied. The polymerization rate was investigated with pH as the main parameter. Some attempts were made to evaluate the average number of growing chains per particle during Stage II of the emulsion polymerization process. Th
