Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A 38.8% by weight acrylic acid/sodium acrylate solution was prepared by continuously mixing water, 50% by weight sodium hydroxide solution and acrylic acid, such that the degree of neutralization was 71.3 mol %. The solids content of the monomer solution was 38.8% by weight. After the components had been mixed, the monomer solution was cooled continuously to a temperature of 29° C. by means of a heat exchanger and degassed with nitrogen.
