Abstract
An experimental study of the bulk free radical polymerization of ethyl acrylate (EA) initiated by 2,2′‐azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) was conducted. The experiments were carried out based on a factorial design with replicates. The reaction variables investigated were initiator concentration, temperature and chain transfer agent (CTA) concentration (primary octanethiol). The results obtained were used to develop and test a simulation model for EA homopolymerization.

Tbe free radical polymerization of ethyl acrylate was investigated in benzene and dimethyl formamide solutions at 50o. The effects of initiator and monomer concentration were studied over a wide range. The overall rate of polymerization was proportional to (initiator concentration) t ~' but not to t
An experimental investigation on the kinetics of free-radical polymerization of behenyl ( a mixture of 14.8% n-octadecyl, 15.1% n-eicosyl, and 70.1% n-docosyl) acrylate initiated with benzoyl peroxide was conducted at 70°C using a HAAKE rotational viscometer.

Polyester-poly(ethyl acrylate-co-styrene) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) were prepared by the two step in situ sequential technique. Both semi-and full IPNs were synthesized. Poly(ethyl acrylate-co-styrene) acts as the rubbery phase and polyester as the hard, brittle phase. It was found th
