A facile method for estimating the kinetics of unseeded batch crystallization via mass and
average size measurements was developed. The population balance equation (PBE) …

Coalescing aids are organic solvents that are widely used to accommodate the film
formation of waterborne coatings. The influence of the volatility, hydrophilicity, and amount of …

In a proof of concept study, a series of nonionic surfactant blends derived from Tween 80
and Span 80 were used to prepare catalytic microgels from stabilized droplets in …

Weak polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) assembled by the layer-by-layer method are known
to become tacky upon contact with water and behave as a viscoelastic fluid, but this wet …

A series of new urethane methacrylate (UMA) monomers were synthesized with the reaction
of ethylene carbonate and aliphatic amines, followed by the reaction with methacrylic …

The influence of butyl acrylate (BA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) on hydroxyl
functionalized latexes was investigated. The hydrophobicity of the monomer feed was varied …

A diurethane monomethacrylate monomer, 3, 12-dioxo-2, 13-dioxa-4, 11-diazapentadecan-
15-yl methacrylate (DODODAMA) was synthesized, purified, and incorporated into …

Vinyl acetate (VAc) was copolymerized with two different maleic acid diesters, dibutyl
maleate (DBM) and dioctyl maleate (DOM) at different comonomer ratios by semi-continuous …

In this study, secondary nucleation in emulsion polymerization of butyl acrylate (BA), styrene
(St), and 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), was investigated. Different molar ratios of BA …

Semibatch, power feed, and shot‐addition feeding strategies were employed to synthesize
carboxylated latex under acidic conditions, using emulsion polymerization. As a source of …
