Summary

  1. 1.

    The polymerization of styrene in presence of ferric chloride and in presence of stannic chloride has been studied.

  2. 2.

    It has been established that when styrene is polymerized in an atmosphere of air in presence of ferric been studied.

  3. 3.

    In an atmosphere of nitrogen and in presence of ferric chloride and in presence of ferric chloride, styrene does not polymerize.

  4. 4.

    When the process is activated by stannic chloride, the polymer of styrene is formed both in an atmosphere of air and in an atmosphere of nitrogen.
