Abstract

Abstract Polymerization of water-in-oil emulsions which contain a polymerizable monomer, a water-in-oil emulsifier, and an oil-inwater emulsifier (in an amount less than that required to break the emulsion) is disclosed. Various products and fields of application are also disclosed, including especially the manufacture of shaped products.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 17 words
An emulsion in accordance with claim 1 wherein said at least one ethylenically unsaturated compound includes styrene.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 22 words
An emulsion in accordance with claim 1 wherein said at least one ethylenically unsaturated compound includes unsaturated polyester resin dissolved in styrene.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
