Polymerization reactions and resulting molecular weight distributions; modeling of polymerization kinetics; batch, continuous stirred tank and tubular flow reactor design for optimal polymerizations; ...

which can confuse as the flow is not considered plug flow. A good substitute for a tubular reactor would be a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). This vessel is fitted with an agitator into ...
