Abstract

Summary 1. A simple isothermal calorimeter is described which is suitable for determination of heats of polymerization. Its operation using methyl methacrylate is illustrated. 2. The heat of polymerization of methyl methacrylate was found to be 13.0* 0.2 kcal./mole. This value did not change with temperature or catalyst concentration within the limits investigated.
