Abstract
Propagation rate coefficients, k~p~, of N‐vinylcarbazole in solution have been determined via visible light pulsed‐laser polymerization over a wide temperature range (E~A~ = 25.3 ± 5 kJ · mol^−1^, A = 1.0 × 10^8^ L · mol^−1^ · s^−1^). The k~p~ data set was used to deduce (average) termination rate coefficients via ^1^H NMR spectroscopic kinetic experiments and the corresponding Arrhenius parameters (E~A~ = −8.5 kJ · mol^−1^ ± 8 kJ · mol^−1^).
Temperature dependence of the propagation rate coefficient, k~p~, in the free radical solution polymerization of NVC. The graph shows the data from 355 and 440 nm initiation as well as data previously obtained by Yamamoto et al.5 The three sets of data have been analyzed separately (for details see text).
