The copolymerization of maleic anhydride (MA), N-2-chlorophenyl maleimide (2-CMI) and N-a-naphthyl maleimide (a-NMI) with styrene (ST) initiated by y-radiation has been studied. The initial rate of copolymerization depends on the total concentration of the comonomers, and the rate decreases in the s

Abstract
Copolymerization of maleic anhydride (MA) and (R),(S)‐limonene (LIM) was studied in various solvents, using 2,2′‐azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) and benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as initiators and radiation (^60^Co γ‐source) within the temperature range of 20–70°C. Regardless of conversion or initial comonomer feed ratios, the composition of LIM‐MA copolymers ranged from about 1 : 1 to 1 : 1,6 and was dependent on the reaction conditions, leading to a formation of materials with diverse solubilities, degrees of crosslinking and molecular weights. The main product consists of a 1 : 1 LIM‐MA copolymer with pendant 4‐methyl‐3‐cyclohexenyl residues. At higher conversion these alicyclic unsaturations lead to crosslinking. No reference to cyclocopolymerization was detected.
