“…Standard models for entry and exit [19,36,37] require a knowledge of the following rate parameters: k p (it is assumed here that this has the same value in particle and water phases), k d (the initiator dissociation rate coefficient), z (the critical degree of polymerization for entry), k 1 p (the propagation rate coefficient of a monomeric radical inside the particle), k t,aq (the rate coefficient for termination of oligomeric radicals in the water phase), C sat W (the water solubility of monomer), k tr (the rate coefficient for transfer to monomer), r spont (the rate coefficient for spontaneous, or 'thermal', entry of radicals into the particles), and D w (the diffusion coefficient of a monomeric radical in water). The values of n calculated using the parameters in the text and in Table 4 are given in Table 3.…”
