The influences of some factors, such as the concentration of monomers, initiator and emulsifier are discussed. The polymerization rate equations of above two monomers can be written as follows: R(p) = k[M](1.21)[I](0.82)[E](0.57) (for QACEMA) R(p) = k'[M](1.34)[I](0.90)[E](0.62) (for DADMAC)展开更多

It showed that the initial polymerization rate (R-p0) and steady-state polymerization rate (R-p) were proportional to the mass ratio between water and oil phase, and increased as the polymerization temperature, the potassium persulphate concentration ([I]) and the Tween20 emulsifier concentration ([S]) increased. The relationships between the polymerization rate and [I] and [S] were obtained as follows: R-p0 proportional to [I](0.73)[S](0.32) and R-p proportional to [I](0.71)[S](0.23). The above exponents were close to those obtained from normal MMA emulsion polymerization. It also showed that the average molecular weight of the resulting poly(methyl methacrylate) decreased as the polymerization temperature, [I] and [S] increased. Thus, MMA suspended emulsion polymerization could be considered as a combination of many miniature emulsion polymerizations proceeding in water drops and obeyed the classical kinetics of MMA emulsion polymerization.展开更多

The rate ofpolymerization (R_p) was found to increase linearly with the concentration (in mol/L) of CuCl_2, AN and St through scalingrelations. The activation energy of the copolymerization process in the presence and absence of CuCl_2 was found to be46.5 kJ/mol and 102 kJ/mol, respectively. The viscosity average molecular weigh of the copolymer and the k_p^2/k_t ratio weredctermired to further assess the accelerating effect of CuCl_2 on the copolymerization process. The copolymerization processin the presence of CuCl_2 has a radical complex mechanism.展开更多
