Abstract

AbstractThe solvent effect on cationic polymerization of styrene derivatives with iodine as the initiator was studied. It was proved that the propagation constant increased remarkably with the polarity of solvent. In the copolymerization the content of the monomer with less solvating power increased in copolymer as the polarity of the medium increased. It was assumed that the process of the dissociation of the gegen anion of the attacking monomer is predominantly rate‐determining in propagation reaction.
