As inverstigating the influence of monomers and photoinitiator in the polymerization rate of photopolymerization by using IR spectroscopy, photopolymerizations initiated by ultraviolet radiation are characterized by the presence of an autoacceleration in the polymerization rate as the reaction proceeds. The conversion for the end of the autoacceleration varies considerably depending on the monomer and reaction condition which determines coil size and viscosity. In UV curable systems, the autoacceleration begins at only a few percent conversion and continues to 40% in HEA solution and 60% conversion in EHA solution. The polymerization ate in HEA solution increased as follow; DMHA > HCPK > DMPA and could be explained by the interaction between the initiating radical and HEA monomer and the size of the photodissociated radical of initiator. But the tendency of autoacceleration in EHA solution is almost independent on initiator.

This work is related to study the thermal decomposition of 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacylohexane(RDX) by differential scanning calorimeter and thermo-gravimetry with Kissinger's & Iso-conversional method under nonisothermal conditions, with heating rate from 2 to $8^{\circ}C$/min or given heating rate. We calculated and compared activation energy with these two methods. Iso-conversional method is better than Kissinger's method to study decomposition mechanism. We also investigated activation energy and frequency factor by Kissinger's & Iso-conversional method with the influence of particle size. In case of single crystal, Cl-3(large crystal) has better thermal stability than Cl-5(small crystal). The activation energy increased according to the size of the particle size.

The polymerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by cobalt(II) chloride in tetrahydrofuran has been studied. The conversion was increased liearly with polymerization time at initial stage of 6${\sim}$7% conversion and then the rate of polymerization was slightly reduced, and after that the autoacceleration was observed. The rate of polymerization was increased with the concentration of cobalt(Ⅱ) chloride, but at the concentration of cobalt(II) chloride higher than $3.4{\times}10^{-4}$ mole/l the rate of polymerization was decreased. The rate of polymerization was dependent on the 1.38 power of the concentration of methyl methacrylate. The effect of the radical inhibitor DPPH was observed and the inhibition time was increased with the concentration of DPPH. The apparent overall activation energy was calculated to be 13.2 kcal/mole. In the copolymerization of methyl methacrylate ($M_1$) and styrene ($M_2$), the monomer reactivity ratio was found to be $r_1$ = 2.35, $r_2$ = 0.78. From the above results. the initiation mechanism of polymerization was discussed and it was considered that the polymerization proceeds mainly via diradical mechaism.
