Temperature Control of Batch Suspension Polyvinyl Chloride Reactors

A simulation program was developed to analyze the influence of temperature profiles of the continuous phase on the polymer properties and monomer conversion in suspension polymerization reactors of vinyl chloride. Polymerization reactions are highly exothermic and the quality of polymer products is...
