Summary

  1. 1.

    Conditions were found for the preparation of the previously undescribed copolymers of chloroprene with vinyl formate, vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, and vinyl butyrate.

  2. 2.

    The copolymerization constants r1 and r2 were determined for vinyl formate, vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, and vinyl butyrate in reaction with chloroprene at 65° with the aid of the method of the “selected curve.”

  3. 3.

    Relative activities with respect to the chloroprene radical were calculated for these vinyl esters.

  4. 4.

    Integral and differential compositions were calculated for copolymers of chloroprene with vinyl for mate.

  5. 5.

    Some of the properties of the copolymers were determined.
