Abstract

Summary.-Vapor phase polymerization of isoprene produces only soluble polymer; insoluble polymer is not formed. The molecular weight of this new polymer is approximately 1300. The molecular weight of the soluble polymer is approximately double that obtained by the usual liquid phase polymerization.
