Multicomponent free‐radical polymerization in batch, semi‐ batch and continuous reactors

Abstract A practical methodology for the computer modelling of multicomponent free radical polymerizations for solution and emulsion systems has been developed. The approach is general providing a common model framework which is applicable to many comononer systems. Model calculations include conversion of the monomers, multivariable distributions of concentrations of monomers bound in the polymer chains and molecular weights, long and short …
