It was demonstrated that gel-free styrene–butadiene–styrene triblock copolymer (SBS) latex with a molecular weight about 90 kg/mol and styrene composition about 34% could be synthesized by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer miniemulsion polymerization. The resulted SBS might be an excellent thermoplastic elastomer as indicated by its mechanical properties with ultimate tensile strength of 16 MPa and about 800% elongation at break.
