Emulsion polymerization monomer-flooded conditions

A first study of reaction kinetics with ACOMP was made for the semibatch emulsion polymerization of MMA at 70 °C [50]. The use of continuous monitoring method described in the previous sections offered a robust means of determining the characteristic features of the starved and flooded monomer conditions and identifying them during the experiments.
