β¦ Synopsis
A~tract--The degradation of copolymers of vinyl 36CI-chloride and methyl methacrylate has been studied using film samples, slow heating rate and high vacuum conditions. Volatilization has been followed using thermal volatilization analysis and radioactive assay of methyl chloride and hydrogen chloride. By carrying out duplicate experiments with and without an ice trap at -lOft, it is possible to measure methyl chloride alone and both products, respectively, so that each product can be estimated. Yields have been found to agree well with those predicted from sequence distribution calculations. Some differences in behaviour compared with earlier work using powder samples and nitrogen flow conditions are discussed.

It is found that, at each extreme of the composition range, incorporation of the co-monomer unit re
Vinyl chloride/acetylene copolymers have been prepared under subsaturation conditions. Copolymerization rates and molecular weights of the copolymers decrease with increasing concentration of acetylene in the monomer feed, indicating that acetylene is a retarder in vinyl chloride polymerization. The
