Stochastic Simulation of Droplet Interactions in Suspension Polymerization of Vinyl Chloride

281e Kinetic Modeling of the Vinyl Chloride Suspension Polymerization

The physical properties of the polymer product determine to a large extent its processability and applications. A large number of properties are directly related to the molecular mass distribution (MMD) of the polymer product. Besides the MMD, the polymer microstructure also plays an important role and influences to a large extent the thermal stability of the polymer product. Most of the therma...

Dynamic Evolution of Droplet/Particle Size Distribution in Suspension Polymerization of Styrene

METHOCEL Cellulose Ethers as Suspending Agents for Suspension Polymerization of Vinyl Chloride

Modelling and Simulation of a Batch Poly(Vinyl Chloride) Reactor

A population balance model for batch suspension polymerization of vinyl chloride is presented. Break up into two equal volumes of droplets, binary aggregation and random mass exchanges between the colliding droplets are assumed, while the kinetic data of vinyl chloride polymerization are taken from the literature. The model and the process are analyzed by simulation applying a novel Monte Carlo...

vinyl chloride emulsion polymerization reaction: effect of various formulations

a mixture  of  sodium  lauryl  sulfate  (sls)  as  ionic  emulsifer  and  stearyl alcohol as non-ionic emulsifer was employed in a vinyl chloride emulsion polymerization  reaction  to  study  the  infuence  of  various  interactive parameters involved in the reaction system. it was found that the particle size was dependent on the amount and type of emulsifer. the average particle size of polyv...
