Why should the monomer used in addition polymerisation through free radical pathway be very pure?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In the free radical polymerisation which is chain growth in nature, the monomers must be very pure. In case, some impurities are present, they will act as inhibitor. The polymerisation may not be complete and the polymers with shorter chain length may result
