Addition polymerisation takes place either by a free radical mechanism or ionic machanism depending on the reagents used. Free radical polymerisation is catelyzed by __________ , which decompose to give free radicals.
A.
Greater the degree of cross-linking in the polymer, lesser is its solubility.
|
B.
Polymers having more aliphatic character are more soluble in aliphatic solvents, while those polymers having more aromatic character are more soluble in aromatic solvents.
|
C.
Swelling tendency or solubility of polymers in a particular solvent decreases with increase in molecular weight of the solvent.
|
D.
High molecul ar weight polymers on dissolving gives solution of very low viscosity.
