Abstract
The free-radical copolymerization of ethene and butyl acrylate was stu died between 130 and 225 degrees C at pressures from 1500 to 2500 bar. The reactions which were induced either thermally or laser-photochemi cally were run in two types of continuously operated devices. Reactivi ty ratio data referring to ethene-rich monomer mixtures are presented. These data allow to estimate the copolymer composition in ethene/buty l acrylate copolymerizations carried out in a wide range of temperatur es and pressures.
