in the early stages of PZN
When r1 is very high and r2 is close to 0 one obtains essentially a homopolymer of M1

Reactivity ratio r steric resonance and polar effects
The values of r1 r2 calculated by Q-e Scheme are deviations from those obtained by experiments(not considered steric effect)

sup1 Discriminate the behavior of co-PZNs
(1) The difference of Q value is large difficult to co-PZN
Ex StyreneVAc Q1 = 10 Q2 = 0026 (r1 = 55 r2 = 001)
(2) The monomers with similar value of Q e are easy to take place co-PZN
Ex StyreneMMA Q1 = 10 Q2 = 074 e1 = -080 e2 = 040 (r1 = 052 r2 = 046)

Mechanism Increasing rates of emulsion PZN usually lead to higher MW
AdvantagesHeat readily dispersed low viscosity high MW obtainable
may be used directly as emulsion works on tacky polymers
DisadvantagesContamination by emulsifier and other ingredients chain
transfer agents often needed to control DP washing and drying necessary for bulk polymer
Industrial applications
