We propose a method of plotting the region in which substantial initiation of radiation-chemical radical polymerization of vinyl monomers occurs (the SRP-region) in coordinates of absorbed dose rate and temperature. The method's suitability is illustrated with the example of the radiochemical polymerization of styrene and methyl methacrylate.
