description

Polymerizable surfactants derived from maleic anhydride have been synthesized. The hydrophilic part is obtained by a controlled ethylene oxide polymerization according to a new heterogeneous catalytic process. Some maleates derivatives have been obtained and fully characterized by 1H and 13C NMR. Their cmc were also measured. Some of them have been engaged in styrene emulsion polymerization in which monodisperse latex particles have been produced.
