Abstract

The polymerization of styrene initiated by titanium(III) chloride/alkyl halide redox systems was studied. Among the alkyl halides examined, the highest rate of polymerization was found in the system titanium(III) chloride/carbon tetrachloride. The polymerization rate can be described by the equation R~p~=k·[Ti(III)]^0,5^·[CCl~4~]^0,5^·[St]^1,0^. The polymerization proceeded via a radical mechanism. The overall activation energy was estimated as 57,3 kJ/mol. It was found that titanium(III) chloride/chloroacetic acid systems, too, could initiate the polymerization of styrene.
