Problems of stationary kinetics of polymerization up to the high conversion state

Three-dimensional (3-D) polymerization of polyfunctional monomers, in contrast to linear polymerization of monofunctional monomers, is accompanied by the cross-linking of polymeric chains at the expense of double bonds, which do not react in the linear chain propagation. That is why in the case of 3-D polymerization the final product is a polymer, the structure of which forms a united network [1,2].
