✦ Synopsis

Butyl acrylate (BA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) have been copolymerized in a 3 mol/L benzene solution using 2,2 -azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) as initiator over a wide composition and conversion range. The overall copolymerization parameter k p /k 1/2 t and the composition of the copolymer formed have been measured as a function of conversion. Theoretical values of the coupled parameter k p /k 1/2 t calculated from the implicit penultimate unit model and those of cumulative copolymer composition, determined from the Mayo-Lewis terminal model, have been correlated with those experimentally obtained.

Solution copolymerizations of butyl acrylate/methyl methacrylate in toluene were performed over an expanded temperature range (60 -140°C) compared to more typical ranges that do not exceed 80°C. From a large amount of data collected independently at two laboratories, reactivity ratios were estimated
