Preparation of Non-Aqueous Polymer Latexes

  • Chapter
Book cover Science and Technology of Polymer Colloids

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 67-68))

Abstract

The subject of dispersion polymerisation in organic media has been comprehensively reviewed (1). This reference should be consulted for a detailed treatment of the theory of particle stabilisation and the kinetics and mechanism of free radical dispersion polymerisation in organic media. In this paper, emphasis is placed on the more practical aspects of preparing polymer latexes and on useful empirical rules for newcomers to the field wishing to make their own latexes. Processes for the preparation of latexes by addition and condensation polymerisation and by inverse emulsification of aqueous monomer solutions in organic liquids are reviewed.
