Effect of the monomer hydrophobicity on the microemulsion polymerization.: A comparison of the efficiency of water- and oil-soluble photoinitiators

Polymerization rates in SDS/monomer/water oil-in-water microemulsions were measured employing a water-soluble (2,2’-azobis(2-amidinopropano), ABAP) and an oil-soluble (2,2’-azobis(isobutyronitrile), AIBN) photoinitiators. Monomers of widely different hydrophobicity, ranging from acrylamide and metha...
