CONTINUOUS DOSING OF VERY FAST INITIATORS DURING POLYMERIZATION REACTIONS

摘要

The invention pertains to a process wherein peroxides are dosed to a polymerization mixture, with essentially all of the organic peroxide that is used in the polymerization process having a half-life from 0.05 hour to 1.0 hour at the polymerization temperature. The dosing of such peroxide allows for accurate control of the polymerization rate, and the process will render a polymer with a low residual peroxide level.
