This paper develops a simple method for predicting the average number of total radicals per particle and their kinds in emulsion copolymerization systems by extending emulsion homopolymerization theories so far published. The validity and utility of this method is demonstrated by using the experimental data obtained in the emulsion copolymerization of styrene and methyl methacrylate.
