Abstract
In this study, polymers of the MMA/Styrene/BMA three-component system were synthesized through either soapless semibatch emulsion copolymerization or soapless batch emulsion copolymerization technique. The optimal monomer fee d flow rate was determined from the interphase partition laws, monomer reac tivity ratios, and three or four times of iterative experimental procedures through semibatch emulsion copolymerization. As a result, the instantaneou s composition of polymers could also be effectively controlled to get the d esired final products. (C) 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
