摘要 |
The present invention discloses processes and apparatus for the efficient and rapid conversion of an elastomeric monomer to a polymerized elastomer, and conjointly, reaction of the resultant rubbery polymer into a monovinylaromatic polymerization reaction to form a rubber-modified polymer; and more specifically teaches a method of polymerizing butadiene and reacting it with styrene monomer to form a transparent rubber-modified impact-resistant polystyrene material exhibiting elastomer concentrations that range from as low as 6 weight percent or lower, to as high as about 50 percent.
