Abstract

Experimental investigations were made into the effects of monomer structure and functionality on free-radical polymerization kinetics. A more comprehensive understanding of how structural characteristics, monomer traits, and polymerization conditions influence the polymerization mechanisms and network evolution was desired. Variations in the nature of the monomers' secondary functionality and the terminal substitution were the primary ...
