    Abstract

    Propagation rate coefficients, kp, as a function of temperature, are reported
    for bulk free-radical homopolymerizations of oxiranylmethyl, cyclohexyl,
    and benzyl methacrylate at ambient pressure and low conversion. The data were
    obtained from experiments combining pulsed-laser initiated polymerization and
    size-exclusion chromatography. The data determined from experiments carried out
    in independent laboratories obey the consistency criteria established for this technique. The rate coefficients for the three monomers are well represented by a single Arrhenius relation.
