A review in 4 sections comprising synthetic methods and prodn. processes of plastics (section I), apparatuses for prodn., processing, and making of plastics (section II), manufg. processes for the most important plastics (section III), and processing of th ...
The present PhD thesis deals with the high temperature polymerization of methyl methacrylate in a continuous pilot scale process. The major aim is to investigate the feasibility of a polymerization process for the production of PMMA molding compound at tem ...
As the need for lower mol. wt. acrylates for specialty and molding applications increases, industry is looking for substitute prodn. processes. An alternative to the increasing of initiator and chain transfer agent concn. is working at higher temps. Howeve ...
The kinetic properties of the Me methacrylate (MMA) polymn. at pilot scale for a given temp. range (130-170 Deg) were detd. by differential scanning calorimetry and batch expts. reflecting initiation by MMA peroxides, depropagation of the living chains as ...
Several researches have dealt with the thermal initiation of Me methacrylate (MMA) in the past. Some of them already discussed the presence of peroxide contg. species that are formed from dissolved oxygen and the monomer itself as main reason for this init ...
