Abstract
A mathematical model is developed for the prediction of particle growth and molecular weight distribution in dispersion copolymerization. The model was validated by fitting conversion evolutions and molecular weight distributions in the dispersion copolymerization of styrene and butyl acrylate in an ethanol–water medium. It was found that the model provided good fitting of the experimental data under many conditions, but cases were found where the model could not fit the molecular weight distribution. Reasons for the lack of fitting are discussed.
