| Popis: | Vinyl acetate (VAc) was polymerized in microemulsion using sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) as surfactant and n-butanol (n-BuOH) as the cosurfactant (1:1, wt/wt) with potassium persulfate (KPS) as initiator. The effects of monomer, surfactant, and initiator concentration, as well as the temperature on the kinetics, particle size, and molar masses were studied. It was observed that polymerization rate increases as monomer, initiator, and temperature increases; however, the opposite was observed as surfactant concentration increases.
