Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, the simultaneous effect of impurity termination and chain transfer to monomer on the molecular size distribution for the anionic polymerization with instantaneous initiation was studied theoretically in detail. The rigorous expressions for the molecular size distribution function and other molecular parameters were derived from a set of kinetic differential equations by means of the non‐steady state method. In accordance with these expressions, several examples of numerical calculation are given and a comparison is made between the polymerization system with chain transfer to monomer and that without monomer transfer.
