Abstract

The principles of the capacity flow type of chemical operation are applied to a typical vinyl polymerization system. Equations are deduced for calculating the conversion and the mean degree of polymerization in terms of the variables including residence time, temperature and reactant concentrations, and it is shown that special cases may arise where the mean degree of polymerization may be almost independent of residence time. A brief discussion of the prestationary period is also given.
