These emulsion polymerization methods have undergone significant advances in the recent years and now a days, synthesis of structured latexes with well defined morphologies and properties has been possible. The development of miniemulsion polymerization has helped to polymerize very hydrophobic and very hydrophilic monomers, which otherwise are difficult to be polymerized with the conventional emulsion polymerization. The combination of controlled living polymerization methods like nitroxide mediated polymerization, atom transfer radical polymerization as well as reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer with the emulsion and miniemulsion polymerization methods has resulted into the synthesis of functional block copolymer chains, graft copolymer chains and star or multi arm copolymer chains in the polymer particles. Apart from that, specific surface modifications on the surface of the emulsion particles have been achieved which have expended the area of application of such polymer particles. The kinetics and mechanism of particle generation with the living polymerization in emulsion and miniemulsion are very complex, however, the recent advances have helped to understand these systems more clearly, thus, allowing to steer them to the advantage. Therefore, these recent advances in the latex technology need to be brought into a cumulative text in order to provide insight into the various possibilities of achieving the optimum latexes. 410 0$aPolymer science and technology series (Nova Science Publishers) 606 $aPolymerization 606 $aLatex 615 0$aPolymerization. 615 0$aLatex. 676 $a668.9/2 700 $aMittal$b Vikas$0859118 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963194003321 996 $aAdvances in polymer latex technology$94469706 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04173nam 2200577Ia 450 001 9910954086203321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-4384-0162-0 035 $a(CKB)1000000000007840 035 $a(EBL)3406934 035 $a(OCoLC)923397192 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000284727 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11195452 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000284727 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10261631 035 $a(PQKB)11723734 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3406934 035 $a(BIP)76148086 035 $a(BIP)1571257 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000007840 100 $a19831117d1984 ub 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aTeaching--the imperiled profession /$fDaniel Linden Duke 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aAlbany $cState University of New York Press$d[c1984] 215 $a1 online resource (v, 174 pages) 311 0 $a0-87395-788-1 320 $aIncludes bibliography (p. 164-171) and index. 327 $aCONTENTS; PART I.

Teaching--The Imperiled Profession goes beyond conventional analyses, to probe the profession and various threats to its viability. Daniel L. Duke has drawn on his own and current educational research--including surveys of teacher opinion, interviews with teachers, and press coverage of educational issues--to uncover and examine a complex array of factors that contribute to the troubled state of the profession and the unprecedented discouragement of its practitioners. The book also analyzes traditional sources of support. Teaching--The Imperiled Profession provides prospective teachers with a realistic picture of the profession today. It identifies a set of concerns on which citizens might reasonably focus attention, in order to forestall any future deterioration. It provides the educator, administrator, and policy-maker with a comprehensive set of recommendations for revitalizing the profession. The book also serves as a concise history of the teaching profession as it has developed in the United States during the twentieth century. Daniel L. Duke, Ed.D. , directs the Educational Administration Program at Lewis and Clark College, Portland, Oregon. His previous publications include Managing Student Behavior Problems, Teacher's Guide to Classroom Management, The Retransformation of the School, and When Teachers and Researchers Cooperate . 606 $aTeacher morale$zUnited States 606 $aTeachers$xJob satisfaction$zUnited States 606 $aTeachers$xJob stress$zUnited States 606 $aTeacher morale 615 0$aTeacher morale 615 0$aTeachers$xJob satisfaction 615 0$aTeachers$xJob stress 615 0$aTeacher morale. 700 $aDuke$b Daniel Linden$0890605 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954086203321 996 $aTeaching--the imperiled profession$94475230 997 $aUNINA
