摘要
Monte Carlo simulation is applied, with a high effectiveness and versatility, to the studies on the kinetics and chain length distribution in radical polymerization with RAFT process. The results show that the molecular weight the resulting polymers increase linearly with monomer conversion, and the polydispersity is lower than 1.1, a typical feature of living polymerization. The simulation results are in consistent with the experimental results in literature. Additionally, that the molecular weight is proportional to the initial concentration of dithioester, [DSE]0, and the polymerization rate is [DSE]0-independent, could be of great help for controlling molecular weight in experiment.
