Abstract

The kinetic investigation of the radical copolymerization of methylacrylate (MA) with styrene (Sty) using zinc chloride (ZnCl2) as an accelerator was carried out at 60 ± 0.1 °C for 120 min. The rate of polymerization was proportional to the concentrations of ZnCl2 and monomers. The energies of activation in the presence and absence of the complex are 34 and 89 kJ mol−1, respectively.
