Abstract
Homopolymerization of allyl alcohol (AA) initiated by gamma rays and c opolymerization of AA with methyl methacrylate (MMA) and acrylonitrile (AN) were investigated. The thermal stabilities of the homopolymers a nd copolymers were determined and their degradation activation energie s calculated. The copolymers, P(AA/AN), obtained from AA + AN monomers were more stable thermally than those copolymers, P(AA/MMA), formed f rom AA+MMA monomer mixtures. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Limited.
