Initiator Feeding Policies in Semi-Batch Free Radical Polymerization: A Monte Carlo Study

A Monte Carlo simulation algorithm is developed to visualize the impact of various initiator feeding policies on the kinetics of free radical polymerization. Three cases are studied: (1) general free radical polymerization using typical rate constants; (2) diffusion-controlled styrene free radical p...
