Abstract

A theoretical investigation of the nonisothermal bulk copolymerization of styrene and methyl methacrylate in a CSTR is reported. A modified framework of free volume theory is developed for a copolymerization system to account for the effect of concentration and temperature on the propagation and termination processes. The evolution of multiple steady states for a set of system parameters has been demonstrated. The stability of these steady states has also been examined.
