Abstract
An effectively linear molecular weight calibration curve of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) was obtained using a copolymer standard with a single broad molecular weight distribution. The molecular weights and molecular weight distributions of PAN obtained from precipitation polymerization of acrylonitrile in supercritical CO~2~ were quantitated by the calibration curve. The effects of monomer concentration, initiator concentration, the CO~2~ pressure, and the total reaction time on the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution were studied in detail. ยฉ 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A kinetic model for evaluating the chain length distribution of a branched polymer produced in emulsion was developed. Chain branching occurring through any intermolecular mechanism is considered, namely, crosslinking, chain transfer to polymer and propagation to terminal double bond. The model acco
