Synthesis of acrylate-based polymeric and polymerisable surfactants and their application in the emulsion polymerisation of styrene

Thesis (PhD (Chemistry and Polymer Science))--University of Stellenbosch, 2006. === The study described in this dissertation examines the synthesis of mainly acrylate-based surfactants and their subsequent use as emulsifiers/stabilisers in the emulsion polymerisation of styrene. Some acrylamide-base...

The study described in this dissertation examines the synthesis of mainly acrylate-based surfactants and their subsequent use as emulsifiers/stabilisers in the emulsion polymerisation of styrene. Some acrylamide-based surfactants were also studied, for comparison purposes only. Two major types of surfactants, polymerisable (surfactant monomers or surfmers) and polymeric, were synthesised, characterised and used in emulsion polymerisation reactions. The prepared polymerisable surfactants, 12-acryloyloxydodecanoic acid (12-ADA) and 11-acrylamidoundecanoic acid (11-AAUA), and their sodium salts, had reactive acryloyl functionalities. 2006-11-07T09:32:38Z 2010-06-01T08:14:31Z 2006-11-07T09:32:38Z 2010-06-01T08:14:31Z 2006-03 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/1185 en University of Stellenbosch 3612110 bytes 141332 bytes application/pdf application/pdf Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch
