Reply to “criticism hypotheses by Gandini and Cheradame regarding the initiation of carbocationic polymerization” (Pol. Bull. 10, 141 1983)

Summary

The mechanism of grafting and blocking in cationic polymerisations initiated by the system RCl-Et2AlCl is discussed. The criticism by Kennedy and Wondraczek of the proposal of a grafting-onto (and blocking-onto) mechanism given in our book is refuted point by point and new arguments are put forward to corroborate our original hypothesis.
