Industrially Relevant Monomers: From Fundamental Kinetics to Application in Controlled Polymerization

Arrhenius parameters of the propagation rate coefficient, kp, of (meth)acrylates are determined (via PLP-SEC) in order to detect global structure-property relationships. Additional physicochemical data is employed in providing a plausible reasoning for the identified trends. The reported kp values are of highest importance for kinetic modeling also of RDRP processes such as ATRP or RAFT. Furthermore, MHKS parameters, temperature dependent densities, viscosities, Tg and dn/dc values are reported
