Monitor of Polymerization of Inverse Microemulsions Containing Methyl Methacrylate and Acrylic Acid

The polymerization of the inverse microemulsions composed of methyl methacrylate,acrylic acid, sodium dodecyl sulfate and water was monitored by refractometer, conductometer and time-resolved light scattering device. The results showed that refractive index, conductivity or intensity distribution of scattered light changed along with polymerization, and different processes of polymerization could be identified.
