✦ Synopsis

From an analysis of the widths of the hyperfine lines in the ESR spectrum of a nitroxidelabelled polystyrene in toluene solution, the correlation times for rotational diffusion at three temperatures have been measured. The values agree well with published data from NMR studies of polystyrene in solution. The value of the activation energy for the relaxation process, 4-3 keal. mole-~, is close to published values for dielectric relaxation of para-substituted polystyrenes. These comparisons provide strong evidence for associating the ESR correlation times with some form of segmental motion of the polymer backbone.

Low density polyethylene was spin-labelled with an oxazolidine-N-oxyl group. Correlation times for the motion of the label were calculated both in the slow-motion region and in the motionallynarrowed region. In the latter situation, the central line shape was successfully simulated. A correlation ma

It is shown that poly(methyl methacrylate), polymerised at 0 ° or above by butyl lithium in THF or toluene, contains a number of n-butyl isopropenyl ketone units. The ct-methylenic protons on the n-butyl group of these units can be abstracted by the propagating or other reactive carbanion to yield t
