Abstract

Polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of 2,5-di-tert-butyl-p-benzoquinone is a combination of two processes: inhibited and controlled radical polymerization. The adduct of chain propagation radicals and p-quinone formed due to the inhibited polymerization is a macroinitiator of controlled radical polymerization. The fraction of the pseudo-living process is determined by the concentration of p-quinone in the starting polymerized composition. Post-polymerization proceeds via the reversible inhibition mechanism.
