Styrene emulsion polymerizations using sodium dodecyl sulfate as an anionic surfactant and in the presence of cationic initiators 2, 2′- Azobis (2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (AIBA) and 2,2′-azobis(N,N′-dimethyleneisobutyramidine) dihydrochloride (ADIBA) were studied. In this work, an explanation forin situcharge neutralization is proposed, and the effect ofin situcharge neutralization on the particle size distribution of the ultimate polymer particles is discussed. Charges of cationic radicals from initiator decomposition shield the anionic charges of surfactant molecules adsorbed on the particle surface and induce particle coagulation during the early particle formation period. As the occurrence ofin situcharge neutralization, the particle number decreases and the rate of micelle capture for the initiator radical is enhanced. Thus, the particle nucleation period is shortened, and monodisperse polymer particles with a diameter of ~200−300 nm are prepared using this simple emulsion polymerization process. In addition, hydrolysis of the initiator AIBA at different pH conditions is used to control particle size and stability. Compared to conventional emulsion polymerization theories, the emulsion polymerization in the presence ofin situcharge neutralization presents unique kinetics.
