I am looking for the rate of (self) polymerization of styrene as a function of time and temperature. The intention is to estimate the content of polymer (polystyrene)that can be formed in a liquid styrene monomer pipe.
Thanks.
Hi,
as a process design engineer, I have to design a screw mixer for a jacketed polymerization reactor.
The highly viscous liquid requires vigourous stirring for reactants homogeneization and exothermicity is removed by cooling water circulating in the jacket.
What are the design parameters and...
