Abstract
Using low conversion bulk copolymerization experimental data and the a pparent rate constant model, the monomer chain cross-transfer rate con stants and the cross-termination coefficient were evaluated. It was fo und that the dependence of the cross-termination coefficient on compos ition is a function of initiator efficiency and that monomer chain cro ss-transfer rate constant are relevant for the theoretical estimation of the molecular weights and molecular weight distributions.
