Emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate initiated by potassium persulfate‐cyclohexanone sodium bisulfite redox pair system

Abstract: The emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate using potassium persulfate and cyclohexanone sodium bisulfite as redox pair initiation system was studied. The rate of polymerization, maximum conversion, and the number of polymer particles produced were found to change with redox initiator, monomer and emulsifier concentrations, and temperature variation. The rate of polymerization was found to be dependent on the initiator, the monomer, and the emulsifier concentrations to the 0.88, 0.22, and 0.20 powers, respect… Show more

“…However, the Tg of polyvinyl acetate (PVA) is 29°C, therefore it is often copolymerized with EA to obtain a softer composition for use as emulsion ( 15 ). Since lower acrylate polymers like EA have Tg below room temperature, they are typically soft and rubbery, hence a small amount of MMA was added to impart strength and hardness to the polymer film ( 16 ). A small amount of acid monomer (AA and MAA) was also used to provide adhesion and thermosetting capability to the polymer film.…”

“…The following ingredients were mixed in a 250 mL three necked flask, the order of addition was as follows: water, emulsifier, initiator and either VAc or BuA monomer. The polymerization reactions were carried out at 70 • C (±1 • C) in an automatically controlled water bath (as mentioned previously [22][23][24]). All the experiments were run with mechanical stirring at 500 rpm.…”
