PARTICLE NUCLEATION USING DIFFERENT INITIATORS IN THE MINIEMULSION POLYMERIZATION OF STYRENE

Abstract In miniemulsion polymerization, droplet nucleation is the key factor to ensure the production of polymer particles with a desired composition. The influence of the initiation on droplet nucleation is conflicting and it has not been completely considered. The result of employing different in...
