- Abstract
Mathematical modeling of batch production of high vinyl random styrene/butadiene copolymers in an industrial batch reactor was accomplished. Mass and energy balance equations were solved to model the nonisothermal anionic copolymerization of styrene/butadiene performed in an industrial batch reactor. The simulation model allows to predict the variation of the individual and global monomer conversion(s), temperature, pressure, and volume level of reactor with the time. Simulation model was used to determine the optimal polymerization conditions to maximize the production of a high vinyl random styrene/butadiene copolymer used in the manufacture of high performance tires.
