Examination of the Principles and Applications of Emulsion Polymerization

Research and Markets has announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd's new report "Principles and Applications of Emulsion Polymerization" to their offering.

This book provides a comprehensive reference on emulsion polymerization methods,focusing on the fundamental mechanisms and kinetics of each process, as well as how they can be applied to the manufacture of environmentally friendly polymeric materials.

This is a hands-on reference for graduate students and professionals in polymer chemistry, chemical engineering, and materials science who are involved in research on coatings, adhesives, rubber, latex, paints, finishes, and other materials that can be created using various methods of emulsion polymerization.

Key Topics Covered:

• Introduction.
• Interfacial Phenomena.
• Particle Nucleation Mechanisms.
• Emulsion Polymerization Kinetics.
• Miniemulsion Polymerization.
• Microemulsion Polymerization.
• Semibatch and Continuous Emulsion Polymerizations.
• Emulsion Polymerizations in Nonuniform Latex Particles.
• Applications of Emulsion Polymers.
