Features: Emulsion polymerization is one of the important methods for producing polymers. Compared with other polymerization methods, it has many unique advantages, so both the technology and theory of emulsion polymerization have developed rapidly. This book first introduces the qualitative and quantitative theories of emulsion polymerization, then discusses the various components that constitute the emulsion polymerization system, namely initiators, emulsifiers, monomers, regulators, as well as media, electrolytes, terminators, and chelating agents, etc. It also introduces the industrial production of emulsion polymers, new advancements, and new methods in emulsion polymerization technology. Additionally, it discusses issues such as the stability of polymer emulsions, performance testing, and the applications of polymer emulsions.
