## Abstract A kinetic model is presented that can be used to predict moments of size distribution of polymer species in the system where a tri‐functional monomer with groups of different reactivity (such as glycerol) reacts irreversibly with a bi‐functional monomer with no cycle formation. A Smoluc

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
A classical kinetic model of step‐wise alternating copolymerization is presented. A set of three partial differential equations is derived for generating functions describing the size distribution of molecules terminated with two different or two alike units. From monomer composition and reactivities of functional groups the moments or averages of the molecular size distribution of copolymers can be calculated.
