Continuous Miniemulsion Polymerization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Most miniemulsion polymerizations are carried out in batch reactors. However, continuous reactors or continuous reactor trains can provide a high level of consistency when operated at steady state. In this feature article, progress in continuous miniemulsion polymerization will be reviewed. Special attention will be given to issues of monomer diffusion and secondary nucleation. A large portion of the paper will be devoted to controlled radical polymerization for two reasons. First, this is a relatively new field, particularly when continuous reactors are considered, and second, for controlled radical polymerization in continuous reactors, themolecular weight distribution of the product is a direct function of the reactor residence time distribution.

The first stage to have access to a reservoir is the drilling operation. The proper development of this operation plays a major role in increasing productivity. It must be pointed out that the drilling fluid (mud) is pivotal in achieving this objective. Among these fluids, water-based fluids are the most common ones, which have been utilized to drill approximately 80% of all wells and are m...

متن کاملMiniemulsion polymerization as a versatile tool for the synthesis of functionalized polymers
The miniemulsion technique is a particular case in the family of heterophase polymerizations, which allows the formation of functionalized polymers by polymerization or modification of polymers in stable nanodroplets. We present here an overview of the different polymer syntheses within the miniemulsion droplets as reported in the literature, and of the current trends in the field.
