Abstract:the peroxy radicals were approximately in the ratio 15 : 10 : 5 : 1. It was also concluded that the secondary peroxy radicals were more reactive than the tertiary peroxy radicals and that the polymeric peroxy radicals were more reactive than the normal alkylperoxy radicals.
“…The values of the reactivity ratios reveal, that AMS is nearly four times more reactive towards the peroxide radical than STY. The r values calculated from the Kelen‐Tudos plots are consistent with those reported earlier 22. The calculation of the reactivity ratios from NMR data is rather straightforward.…”

“…This also indicates that the peroxide radical is more reactive towards monomers having more electron‐donating ability. The reactivity ratio values calculated in this study match well with those reported earlier . However, r AMS = 0.98 and r St = 0.67 are also reported for the AIBN‐initiated copolymerization of AMS with St at 50 °C at 1 atm (101 kPa) oxygen pressure .…”
This paper reports the effects of catalysts on the oxidative copolymerizations of styrene with α‐methylstyrene, namely rates of copolymerization reactions, molecular weights and monomer reactivity ratios.
“…The chemical shifts are measured with reference to tetramethylsilane (TMS). The 13 C NMR spectra were obtained under inverse gated decoupling with 15 s delay between the pulses. A line broadening of 2 Hz was applied before Fourier transformation in order to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio.…”

“…[2] In an earlier work on the oxidative copolymerization, relative rates of oxidation of different monomers and their reactivity towards a peroxide radical was investigated. [12,13] The oxidation of two monomers can be considered as a special case of terpolymerization, when the monomers do not homopolymerize. The uniqueness of this system is that it approximates to a binary copolymerization in terms of 1RO 2 9 radicals.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
