| Description |
In an attempt to reveal the kinetic mechanism of free radical bulk copolymerization of styrene-methyl
methacrylate (SMMA), experiments were conducted in sealed glass ampules at constant temperature
using benzoyl peroxide as catalyst. The analysis of the various experimental data for rate of
polymerization and other parameters indicate that: (a) the rate of copolymerization is lower than the
homopolymerization of pure styrene and methyl methacrylate (M MA), separately and decreases
graduallywith increasing styrene content from ~ 0.2 to 0.9 molfraction in the feed; (b) the termination
mechanism in SM MA copolymerization is controlled by diffusion.
