This article is concerned with polymer latices as colloidal systems. According to one
definition dispersions of solid particles in liquid media are considered to be colloidal if the …

A key problem with all colloidal dispersions IS tneir ability to remain for long periods as
systems containing single independent unaggregated particles. I n general. particles of …

Among the important contributions to polymer technology, the invention of the emulsion
polymerization process has been recognized to be of outstanding value. The salient feature …

Latex is an example of a colloidal dispersion. It consists of polymeric particles, which are
usually a few hundred nanometres in diameter, dispersed in water. The particles typically …

THE STABILITY OF A polymer latex against precoagulation is of prime importance in any
stage of its polymerization, compounding, and final application. If these latexes do not have …

Résumé Toutes les dispersions colloïdales de polymère (appelées latex) sont dans un état
physique qui est susceptible d'évoluer: par exemple, les particules, initialement dispersées …

The boundary region separating a latex particle from the surrounding medium has a great
influence on the properties of latex dispersions. Four types of polystyrene and polystyrene …

This paper describes the preparation and properties of sterically stabilised polymer latex
dispersions in the lower liquid alkanes down to ethane, and in liquid xenon. They exhibit …
