Chain transfer constants of some alipathic agents in the polymerization of styrene and methylmethacrylate

  • Published:
Polymer Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The chain transfer constants of various aliphatic compounds in the free radical polymerization of styrene and methyl methacrylate have been determined at 60°C. It has been found that some cycloaliphatic compounds show a remarkable chain transfer activity, which can also be of practical interest.
