The thermal initiation of the polymerization of styrene has been studied at temperatures from 60-140ยฐC using DPPH as a free radical scavenger. Rates of free radical formation, measured by the decrease in absorbance at 525 nm, are about seven times greater than those obtained from inhibition period m
A~tract--The present paper reports an investigation on the "pseudo-living'" radical chain propagation process in the case of the styrene polymerization initiated by benzopinacolates. Two steps were observed, as in earlier reported investigations. Oligomers were formed first at low monomer conversion
