In the present work the significance of desorption of free radicals from polymer particles during emulsion polymerisation is under consideration. Reports in the literature show determination of radical desorption from polymers have received very little attention. In the present study the radical desorption rate coefficient, K0, was determined for polystyrene and poly(methylmethacrylate) particles under various conditions. [Continues.]
