SUSPENSION POLYMERIZATION
Abstract
In a typical suspension polymerization system, one or more water-insoluble monomers containing oil-solube initiator(s) are dispersed in the continuous aqueous phase by a combination of strong stirring and the use of small amounts of suspending agents (stabilizers). Suitable conditions of mechanical agitation are maintained while the monomer droplets are slowly converted from a highly mobile liquid state, through a sticky syrup-like dispersion (conversion 20–60%), to hard solid polymer particles (conversion > 70%) [1–3]. The stabilizers hinder the coalescence of the monomer droplets first, and later stabilize tHe polymer beads whose tendency to agglomerate may become critical when the polymerization has advanced to the point where the polymer beads become sticky.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
