without changing the rate of polymerization, reaction temperature, or parti-
cle concentration.

“Normal” behavior is observed in the emulsion polymerization of methyl
methacrylate at low conversions and generally when the polymer particle
sizes are small. The rate of polymerization is observed to accelerate, how-
ever, at high conversion levels when the polymer particles are large.
Explain briefly.
