The term latex covers emulsion polymers, polymer dispersions and polymer colloids. This review report provides a general overview of the emulsion polymerisation processes and explains how the resulting latices are used in industrial applications. The classes of emulsion polymers are surveyed and the commercial technologies and potential future uses discussed. An additional indexed section containing several hundred abstracts from the Polymer Library gives useful references for further reading.

Author / Editor Details: The authors of this report are on the staff at the Emulsion Polymers Institute (EPI), Lehigh University, formed in 1975. Its aim is to carry out interdisciplinary research to gain fundamental information on the preparation and properties of polymer latexes and also to discover and develop industrial applications.
