Build-up of polymer networks by initiated polyreactions

1. Comparison of kinetic and statistical approaches to the living polymerization type of build-up

  • Published:
Polymer Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Theoretical treatment of network formation with participation of initiated reactions is to be based on the kinetic (coagulation) theory, because the application of the statistical network build-up from monomer units (cascade substitution) can be a source of serious deviations. This comparison is demonstrated by the degree-of-polymerization distribution obtained in the linear living polymerization and the gel point conversion in the multifunctional polymerization involving a monomer with two groups of independent reactivity
