Monomer Chain Cross-Transfer Constants and Cross Termination Factor Evaluations on Styrene-Acrylonitrile Copolymerization
Using low conversion bulk copolymerization experimental data and the apparent rate constant model, the monomer chain cross-transfer rate constants and the cross-termination coefficient were evaluated. It was found that the dependence of the cross-termination coefficient on composition is a function of initiator efficiency and that monomer chain cross-transfer rate constant are relevant for the theoretical estimation of the molecular weights and molecular weight distributions.
