Free-Radical Chain-Growth Polymerization

  • Chapter

Abstract

Polymerizations by a free-radical mechanism are typical free-radical reactions. That is to say, there is an initiation, when the radicals are formed, a propagation, when the products are developed, and a termination, when the radical reactions end. In the polymerizations, the propagations are chain reactions. A series of very rapid repetitive steps follow each single act of initiation, leading to the addition of thousands of monomers.
