Influence of agitation during emulsion polymerization of acrylic-styrene latexes on end product properties

摘要

Emulsion polymerization is influenced by system turbulence due to its heterogeneous nature. System effective agitation is necessary to keep the particles in dispersed phase, to prevent flocculation, to improve mass and heat transfer, phenomena that influence the reaction mechanism and kinetics as well as the final proudct properties and the properties of the product based on achieved latex.
