Summary
A correlation between the particle size and the amounts of surfactants was found to fit well for the mixed-surfactant system of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and Emulphogene BC-840 (a nonionic surfactant) using in the emulsion polymerization of cyclohexyl methacrylate (CHMA) at 50°C. The formation of microglobules at early conversion was found. The effect of initiator (K2S2O6) content and the water solubility of CHMA and PCHMA were also studied.
