Kinetics and Mechanisms of Emulsion Polymerization
Mamoru Nomura†
  • Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Fukui, Fukui, 910-8507, Japan
E-mail:
The current understanding of the kinetics and mechanisms of batch and continuous emulsion homoand co-polymerizations is summarized from the viewpoints of particle formation and growth. There are numerous factors that affect these processes; among them, studies on the radical transfer and the monomer partitioning between phases, which are key factors for particle formation and growth, are reviewed and discussed. Attention is also focused on the effects of initiator type, additives and impurities in the recipe ingredients, and agitation, each of which sometimes exert crucial influences on the processes of particle formation and growth.
Keywords:emulsion polymerization;particle formation;particle growth;desorption;initiator;impurity;stirring
