THE POLYMERIZATION OF VINYL MONOMERS IN THE CRYSTALLINE STATE, INITIATED BY GAMMA RAYS

Journal Article · · Chem. prumysl
OSTI ID:4143900
The polymerization of solid acrylamide by gamma radiation was investigated. The formation of mixed crystals of acrylamide with the acetamide and amide of butyric acid increased the rate of polymerization. A kinetic analysis of the polymerization of vinyl monomers in the crystalline form is given. Rate constants for the polymerization reaction were determined. Changes in the degree of order in the lattice of the mixed crystals affect the kineticsfo the polymerization.
