monomer-flooded emulsion polymerisation

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.14336
Semi-continuous emulsion polymerization in which the monomer(s) is(are) fed to the reactor at a rate that exceeds the rate of polymerization.
Note: A monomer-flooded emulsion polymerization refers to a state where the monomer concentration in the polymer particles is at or greater than its equilibrium swelling value and therefore droplets may be formed.
