Abstract
AbstractAtom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) equilibrium constants, KATRP, are measured for copper‐mediated styrene polymerizations in acetonitrile solution using several different ligand and initiator systems. Application of high pressure increases the rate of an ATRP by enhancing both KATRP and the propagation rate coefficient. This favorable effect is not counterbalanced by an increase in dispersity. A comparison of the values of KATRP measured on monomer‐free model systems shows close agreement with values measured during styrene polymerization.
