Abstract:

The report contains results on the polymerization or attempted polymerization of the following monomers by gamma radiation at reduced temperatures acrylonitrile, vinyl fluoride, vinyl chloride, allyl cyanide, chloral, and hexafluoroacetone. Since the last reporting period, work has continued to determine the causes of the erratic rates obtained in the radiation-induced polymerization of acrylonitrile at -74C and 720,000 rads per hour. In addition, the gamma ray initiated polymerization of vinylidene fluoride, vinyl fluoride, vinyl chloride and 3-butene nitrile allyl cyanide at -72 to -74C has been examined. New work was also started on the radiationinitiated polymerization of carbonyl compounds. The two monomers thur far studied were chloral and hexafluoro-acetone.
