Main regularities of polymerization of butadiene by the action of a composite sodium-aluminium organic initiator in hydrocarbon medium

Abstract A study was made of polymerization of butadiene in toluene with small additions of polar compounds (tetrahydrofuran, dimethyldioxane) by the action of a sodium-α-methylstyrene-tri-isobutyl aluminium binary initiator. Main regularities determining polymer microstructure, molecular weight and the rate of
