Rates of oxygen absorption by styrene (RH) containing 2,2,3,3-tetraphenylbutane and zinc di-isopropyldithiophosphate at 30 °C obey the rate law [Formula: see text] where Ri is the rate of free-radical chain initiation. This order with respect to the styrene concentration implies extensive chain transfer from the poly(peroxystyryl)peroxy radical to a radical derived from the inhibitor. Reaction products confirm the displacement of a di-isopropyldithiophosphoryl radical in the chain termination reaction.Diethyldithiophosphoric acid also inhibits styrene autoxidation by a mechanism which involves extensive chain transfer.

The article compiled a mathematical model of the cationic copolymerization of isobutylene and isoprene using a catalyst AlCl3 in a CH3Cl solution, including the reactions of initiation, chain growth, chain transfer to the monomer, and chain termination. The molecular weight characteristics of butyl rubber synthesized in methyl chloride using a catalytic system based on aluminum trichloride have been investigated. Relationships are obtained for calculating the moments of the molecular weight characteristics of butyl rubber. The effect of the concentration of the initiator on the conversion versus time was investigated.
