Massipolümerisatsiooni
Massipolümerisatsiooni, also known as bulk polymerization, is a method of polymerization where monomers are polymerized in the absence of any solvent or diluent. This means the reaction mixture consists solely of monomers, initiators (if applicable), and any other additives. The monomer itself acts as the reaction medium.
This technique offers several advantages. It results in a high-purity polymer because there is no solvent to
However, the method also presents significant challenges, primarily related to heat transfer and viscosity. As the
Despite these difficulties, massipolümerisatsiooni is employed for producing certain polymers like polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polystyrene, and
