Abstract
Using a quartz microbalance operating in solutions, a very sensitive determination of the increasing viscosity during the very early stages of polymerization reactions is possible in a continuous fashion. Kinetic data have been obtained for methyl methacrylate as the monomer and benzoin, its methyl ether, and 2,2‐dimethoxy‐2‐phenylacetophenone as photoinitiators using an excimer laser operating at 351 nm. This in situ method represents a very sensitive, convenient, and inexpensive technique for obtaining kinetic data under a variety of boundary conditions including photopolymerization, the example outlined here.
