Abstract

An isotachophoresis (IP) was applied to determine the decomposition rate of potassium persulphate (KPS) as initiator in emulsion polymerization, in comparison with conventional iodometry and ferrometry. For the exact determination, the latter methods needed several milliliters of the emulsion pipetted from the polymerization system, whereas IP did only a few microliters. Moreover, the amount of sulphuric acid produced as the decomposition by-product was simultaneously determined by IP, which is impossible for iodometry and ferrometry.
