we specialize in styrene-butadiene emulsion polymerization, we run conversion to 60%, and we recover the unconverted (1.3 butadiene) at a purity of average of 73% and major impurity is (cis-2 butene), how can we minimize this impurity formation
I agree Jing Jin, You can try to change the solvent of emulsion polymerization because that the content of 1.3 butadiene is controlled by the polarity of the solvent.
