“…The acceleration of the rate of polymerization of some monomers by Pd II has been observed [12,13]. Polymerization of methylmethacrylate (MMA) initiated by amines in the presence of CCl 4 by a charge-transfer mechanism [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25], amines, and Ru III complexes is also a very effective system in atom transfer radical polymerization mechanism [26,27], and a free-radical retrograde-precipitation polymer mechanism has been studied widely by many investigators [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. It has been observed that two different mechanisms [36,37] for the initiation of polymerization of MMA, involving the charge-transfer complex formed by the interaction of amine and CCl 4 -under the conditions [CCl 4 /amine]≤1-and by the interaction of amine and MMA-under the conditions [CCl 4 /amine]≥1 have been proposed.…”
