Abstract
AbstractThe polymerization of methyl acrylate in water and in dilute, aqueous, soap solutions, initiated by potassium peroxydisulfate, has been investigated, a dilatometric method being used to follow the conversion. It has been shown that small amounts of an anionic soap increase the rate of reaction while a cationic soap has the reverse effect. The change of molecular weight with conversion has also been examined as well as the effect of the exclusion of oxygen from the system.
