ABSTRACT:The specific features of free-radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of a new initiating system, benzoyl peroxide-N,N-dimethyl-N-(methylferrocenyl)amine, are studied. Mutual influence of ferrocenyl-and amine groups on kinetic parameters of polymerization and on the microstructure of the resulting polymers is found. It is shown that the polymer obtained in the presence of this initiating system has predominantly syndiotactic structure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
