Abstract
This paper investigates the effect of n-dodecyl mercaptan (n-DDM) as a chain transfer agent on the molecular weight of poly(methyl methacryl ate). The transfer constant of n-DDM was calculated at different tempe ratures; the activation energy and frequency factor for an Arrhenius e quation of transfer constant were then obtained.
