Polymerization of vinylcyclopropanes. V. Radical copolymerization of 1, 1‐dichloro‐2‐vinylcyclopropane with monosubstituted ethylenes

Abstract

Abstract A peculiar copolymer composition equation applicable to the radical copolymerization of 1,1‐dichloro‐2‐vinylcyclopropane with monosubstituted ethylenes was developed. The theory was applied to such ethylenes as methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, and styrene. The reactivity ratio parameters which give the best fit to the experimental data were determined.
