## Abstract Diphenylzinc, alone or in combination with water and butanone as coinitiators, was used as a polymerization initiator system for a variety of lactones at varying temperatures. The resulting data indicate that the course of the polymerization is greatly influenced by the lactone structur
Polymerization of 1-caprolactone had been investigated with cyclopentadienyl sodium as an initiator. The effects of reaction time, temperature, and concentration of the initiator on the yield and molecular weight of the polymer were discussed. It was shown that the high molecular weight of poly(1-ca
