Ma. Blaga et al., Continuous flow-solution polymerization of vinyl and acrylic monomers. II - Methyl methacrylate-styrene copolymerization, REV RO CHIM, 44(4), 1999, pp. 383-391
In a continuous flow reactor with static mixing elements of Sulzer-type, th
e solution copolymerization of methyl methacrylate(MMA) and styrene (S) was
analysed experimentally and the results compared with a theoretical model.
Two monomers ratios (MMA : S) were used: 1/1 by weight (MMA-S) and 7/3 by
weight (MMA-S). The monomers: solvent, ratio in all experiments, was 1:1 (b
y weight). The experimental data, monomers conversion and molecular weights
distribution are compared with the predictions of the reactor mathematical
model.
