Popis: | The kinetics of butyl acrylate solution polymerization up to high conversion are studied both experimentally and theoretically. New expressions taking into account both inter- and intramolecular transfer to polymer are derived for polymerization rate, average chain-length and branching level. These expressions are used for comparative analysis of these two chain transfer events and for evaluation of the backbiting rate coefficient, k bb , and the constant of chain transfer to solvent (xylene), C trS . Using batch experiments performed at 50, 60 and 70 °C, the Arrhenius parameters for k bb and C trS are estimated to be, respectively, A(k bb ) = (7.4 ± 1.5) x 10 7 s -1 , E a (k bb ) = (32.7±0.5) kJ. mol -1 and A(C trS )= 10.5 ±3.5, E a (C trS ) = (26.9 ± 1.9) kJ. mol -1 . |
