✦ Synopsis

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 the concentration of the monomer. We attempted to interpret this solvent effect on the basis of (i) the diffusion theory, (ii) the theory of charge transfer complexes and (iii) the theory of hot radicals. Our experimental results could only be explained quantitatively in terms of hot radicals.

It takes into account complex formation of both monomer and radical with solvent by equilibria. Evaluation methods presented permit to estimate the co

The radical polymerizations of acrylamide and methacrylamide and of acrylic, methacrylic and fluoroacrylic acids have been studied in various solvents. The nature of the solvent affects the overall rate due to changes in kp and Ep. It has been shown that the effect of solvent also depends on the nat
