Abstract
The thermal properties (thermal diffusivity, thermal effusivity, thermal conductivity, and specific heat capacity) of poly(methyl acrylate), which was obtained by ultrasonochemical polymerization, were measured experimentally with photoacoustic and other techniques. In addition, the thermal expansion of poly(methyl acrylate) was measured experimentally with an indigenously modified Fizeau's apparatus and is reported here for the first time to an accuracy of 0.05%. The results were compared with the available literature values and examined. Sinclare's apparatus was used to determine the specific heat capacity and matched well with differential scanning calorimetry measurements. The methodโofโmixtures technique was an alternative method of determining the specific heat capacity. ยฉ 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 93: 1071โ1076, 2004

## Abstract An inโdepth study was carried out on the structure and properties of a series of poly(ethyl acrylate)/clay nanocomposites prepared by __in situ__ atom transfer radical polymerization (PNCIs) with wellโdefined molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions. Wideโangle Xโray
Conductimetry was used for monitoring the radical polymerization of a weak electrolyte (acrylic acid) in aqueous solution and for determination of the kinetic parameters of the reaction (reaction order with respect to monomer, activation energy). The results obtained were consistent with those deter
