Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
What is the basic mechanism of an Anionic polymer (acrylic acid based as carbomers) in regards to function and “activation”? How do they work and thicken?
Show the differences between the chain-growth and step-growth mechanisms of polymerization.
Addition (chain-growth) polymerization reactions often terminate by combination or disproportionation. However, there is another class of deactivation reactions, called chain transfer reactions, which are usually relevant to the final degree of polymerization (dp). How might you expect the dp of a polymerization reaction deactivated by chain transfer compare/contrast with polymerizations terminated by combination or disproportionation?
