Abstract
An almost alternating stereoregular copolymer can be obtained by copolymerizing ethylene and styrene with the catalyst ethylenebis(1βindenyl)zirconium dichloride activated by methylaluminoxane at β25Β°C. The regular microstructure pointed out by the NMR spectrum allows the copolymer to crystallize as shown by calorimetric and Xβray diffraction measurements.

## Abstract Alternating copolymerization of butadiene and ethylene was investigated by the TiCl~4~βR~3~Al system as catalyst with the use of toluene solutions of monomers of various compositions or by introducing a 1:1 gaseous mixture of both monomers into the reaction system. It was found that the
The effect of steric hindrance on the attack of growing polymer radicals to the reaction sites on a trunk polymer was examined in the graft copolymerization of styrene onto a trunk polymer with pendant aromatic nitro groups by chain transfer reaction of growing polymer radicals to the pendant nitro
