Abstract: A process for the removal of solvent from a polymeric solution including at least one elastomeric polymer. The polymeric solution is subjected to a stripping step by means of water vapor, in the presence of a dispersant system including: from 0.005% by weight to 1% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the dry elastomeric polymer, of at least one lamellar material; from 0.0005% by weight to 1% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the dry elastomeric polymer, of at least one cationic surfactant.

Abstract: A process for the removal of the solvent from a polymeric solution including at least one elastomeric polymer, which comprises subjecting said polymeric solution to a stripping step by means of water vapour, in the presence of a dispersant system comprising: —from 0.005% by weight to 1% by weight, preferably from 0.008% by weight to 0.8% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the dry elastomeric polymer, of at least one lamellar material; —from 0.0005% by weight to 1% by weight, preferably from 0.0008% by weight to 0.8% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the dry elastomeric polymer, of at least one cationic surfactant.

Abstract: A process is described for producing aqueous latexes essentially consisting of composite polymeric particles which comprises: (a) a first radicalic polymerization step in aqueous emulsion of monomers selected from vinylaromatics and mixtures of vinylaromatics/conjugated dienes, thus obtaining the first latex; (b) a second radicalic polymerization step in aqueous emulsion which consists in polymerizing, on the latex obtained in step (a), chloroprene or mixtures of chloroprene and monomers copolymerizable with chloroprene, the latter in a quantity not higher than 10% by weight with respect to the chloroprene, thus obtaining the latex object of the present invention.

Abstract: A process for the polymerization of chloroprene or of a mixture of chloroprene and of up to 20% by weight of a copolymerizable monomer, in aqueous emulsion in the presence of radical initiators, at a temperature of between 5° C. and 70° C., characterized in that the polymerization is carried out in the presence of one or more copolymerizable surfactants in agreement with the formula described below (I) R3—Z—CO—C(R1)═C(R2)—COOM  (I) where: R3 is a saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched and aliphatic or aromatic Cn hydrocarbonaceous chain with n from 10 to 20; R1 and R2, which are identical or different, are chosen from H or a C1-C3 alkyl radical; Z is chosen from —O— and —NH—; M is chosen from alkali metals or NH4.

Abstract: The disclosure is made of a process for the polymerization of chloroprene or of a mixture of chloroprene and of up to 20% by weight of a copolymerizable monomer, in aqueous emulsion in the presence of radical initiators, at a temperature of between 5° C. and 70° C.

Abstract: Method for the shortstopping of polymerizations of conjugated dienes possibly mixed with vinyl-substituted aromatic products in a radicalic emulsion polymerization process using a redox initiator, in particular radicalic emulsion polymerizations of butadiene possibly mixed with styrene or acrylonitrile, a method which enables the production of polymers without nitrosamines (NA) and/or their precursors.
