Abstract: Polystyrene is dispersed into a polyol via a mechanical dispersion process. A stabilizer is present to stabilize the dispersed polymer particles. The stabilizer includes a copolymer of (1) from 10 to 70% by weight of a branched polyol which has a molecular weight of from 4000 to 20,000, from 0.2 to about 1.2 polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated groups per molecule and from about 3 to about 8 hydroxyl groups per molecule with (2) from 30 to 90% by weight of styrene or a mixture of styrene and one or more other low molecular weight monomers.

Abstract: The process for the continuous preparation of homopolymers or copolymers by free-impinging-jet micromixing of fluids formed (1) of monomer(s) and (2) of an initiator system consists in micromixing the said fluids (1) and (2) and in recovering the mixture of these fluids in the form of a resultant jet Jr, originating from the point of impingement (I), the micromixture being obtained by: a) forming at least one group of at least two jets Ja of the said identical or different fluids, these jets coinciding at a point of impingement (I), the jets Ja of the same group all being of identical geometry, their axes being arranged such that their projections on a plane perpendicular to the axis (A) of the resultant jet Jr are distributed angularly in a uniform manner and these axes being inclined relative to the said axis (A) by the same non-zero angle ? of not more than 90°; b) simultaneously directing at the point of impingement (I) at least one jet Jb of a fluid which is different from at least one of the fluids o
