Modeling of Styrene/Butadiene Co-polymerization in Emulsion with Monte Carlo Simulation

Emulsion polymerization is widely used to produce a variety of polymer latices such as paints and adhesives. The Monte Carlo method of simulation has been applied for the first time to styrene/butadiene co‐polymerization in emulsion, in a batch reactor. Polymer particle properties such as molecular...

Zusammenfassung:Emulsion polymerization is widely used to produce a variety of polymer latices such as paints and adhesives. The Monte Carlo method of simulation has been applied for the first time to styrene/butadiene co‐polymerization in emulsion, in a batch reactor. Polymer particle properties such as molecular weight distribution, particle size distribution, and tri‐ and tetra‐functional branching for emulsion co‐polymerization of styrene‐butadiene are predicted.
