This reprint is a compilation of nine papers published in Processes, in a Special Issue on “Modeling and Simulation of Polymerization Processes”. It aimed to address both new findings on basic topics and the modeling of the emerging aspects of product design and polymerization processes. It provides a nice view of the state of the art with regard to the modeling and simulation of polymerization processes. The use of well-established methods (e.g., the method of moments) and relatively more recent modeling approaches (e.g., Monte Carlo stochastic modeling) to describe polymerization processes of long-standing interest in industry (e.g., rubber emulsion polymerization) to polymerization systems of more modern interest (e.g., RDRP and plastic pyrolysis processes) are comprehensively covered in the papers contained in this reprint.

Technology: general issues --- Chemical engineering --- dithiolactones --- RAFT polymerization --- kinetic modeling --- vinyl monomers --- methyl methacrylate --- polystyrene --- thermal pyrolysis --- nitroxide mediated polymerization --- mathematical modeling --- Poly(acrylic acid) --- free-radical polymerization --- reaction model --- process intensification --- semi-batch to continuous --- initiator feeding policies --- styrene --- Monte Carlo simulation --- polymer microstructure --- aqueous phase polymerization --- polyelectrolytes --- radical polymerization --- modeling and simulation --- emulsion polymerization --- styrene–butadiene rubber --- nitrile rubber --- ethylene polymerization --- metallocene --- zirconium-based catalyst --- organoboron compounds --- polymer grafting --- polymer synthesis --- polymer characterization --- polymer reaction engineering --- reversible deactivation radical polymerization --- nano-SiO2 --- silane coupling agent --- thermal stability --- mechanical parameter --- molecular simulation --- n/a --- styrene-butadiene rubber
