In situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) using peroxydisulfate has become more popular in the
remediation of soils and shallow groundwater contaminated with organic chemicals …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the reduction potentials involving inorganic free
radicals in aqueous solution. Because free radicals are usually transients, knowing their …

A model, together with a comparison with previously published experimental data, is
presented for initiator efficiency in seeded styreneemulsion polymerization systems in the …

Persulfate oxidation chemistry is an emerging technology for the in situ chemical oxidation of
chlorinated and non-chlorinated organics. Activation of persulfate to form sulfate radicals is a …

A two-stage oxidation (UV-Na2S2O8/H2O2-Fe (II, III)) process was applied to mineralize
bisphenol A (BPA) at pHi (initial pH) 7. We take advantage of the high oxidation potential of …

The controlled/“living” radical polymerization of n-butyl methacrylate was conducted in an
emulsion under reverse atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) conditions. The …

The peroxydisulfate anion has long been used for the preparation of hexavalent americium
(AmVI) from the normally stable AmIII valence state in mildly acidic solutions. However, there …

The reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer‐chain length dependent termination
(RAFT‐CLD‐T) method has allowed us to answer a number of fundamental questions …

This book presents a review of extant applications of surfactant technology in chemical
synthesis as well as chemical reactions and catalysis. The applications and utilization of …

An extensive model is given for the particle size distribution (PSD), particle number, particle
size and amount of secondary nucleation in emulsion polymerisations. This incorporates …
