Abstract:

An original, quantitative, theory of “living” radical copolymerization has been developed proceeding from the current concepts of its kinetics and mechanism. This theory enables one to calculate both the dependence of monomers' conversion on time and any statistical characteristics of the chemical structures of the copolymers formed. Expressions have been derived describing the angular dependence of the scattering amplitude of the copolymerization products. The results of quantitative calculations of these characteristics have been also presented to exemplify the potentialities of the theory.
