Poly (methyl methacrylate) was synthesized by batch emulsion polymerization with Methyl Methacrylate as the monomer potassium peroxo-disulfate as the initiator, sodium stearate as the emulsifier and distilled water as a medium. The kinetics of free radical polymerization was studied. The kinetics has been modeled, assuming homogeneous nucleation and the resulting equation were solved using runge- kutta method. Degree of conversion and rate of polymerization were studied. Key
