Heterophase polymerization of styrene in the presence of di-p-tolyl-o-carba
lkoxy-phenylcarbinol (DTC) soluble in monomer and insoluble in water, as st
abilizer, was investigated. The factors affecting polymer particle diameter
, their size distribution and stability were investigated. It was suggested
that polymer particles are formed from monomer droplets. The polystyrene s
uspension with narrow particle size distribution synthesized in the presenc
e of DTC, was used for immunochemical research.
