We polymerize the MMA in suspension polymerization. We need to make a better free flowing of the polymer particles. We don't know how to do that. Would you please help me?
According to the book "Principles of Polymer Systems
By Ferdinand Rodriguez, Claude Cohen, Christopher K. Ober, Lynden Arche", you may try to add some suspending agents to prevent foaming and sticking of drops to each other. If you are using magnetic stirrer, I highly recommend you to change stirring for overhead agitator - it will provide better mixing for all reaction zones, when in case of magnet usage, "local" effects from details of your reaction flask could be a problem
we use the mechanical mixer with a designed shaft to have a good suspension. recently with the change in the speed of the mixed we could make a better flow.
