Abstract
Heterophase polymerization of styrene in the presence of di-p-tolyl-o-carbalkoxyphenylcarbinol (DTC) soluble in monomer and insoluble in water, as stabilizer, was investigated. The factors affecting polymer particle diameter, their size distribution and stability were investigated. It was suggested that polymer particles are formed from monomer droplets. The polystyrene suspension with narrow particle size distribution synthesized in the presence of DTC, was used for immunochemical research.
