Abstract

Ethylene–vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers were chosen for this work because they show different characteristics depending on their vinyl acetate (VA) percentage. EVA has a wide range of applications, including coating of photovoltaic cells and covering of tires and cables, as a consequence of the different varieties of the material depending on the VA percentage. To date, no study has been conducted yet to determine the relationship between VA percentage and the flow ability response of an emulsion. Previous studies commonly highlighted the effect of particle size and emulsifier concentration on the emulsion process, but none of these studies directly discussed the effect of VA percentage of an EVA copolymer on the flow ability response of an emulsion. In this study, correlation between polymer-interaction was studied through measurement of intrinsic viscosity
