Composition drift occurs during the process of free radical copolymerization causing variation in the instantaneous mole fraction of a monomer added to copolymer, therefore altering the chemical composition of the copolymer over the period of conversion. The degree of composition drift is directly affected by the reactivity ratios of each monomer in the copolymer system. Both the Mayo-Lewis equation and plot of the equation make evident that as monomer conversion increases, the copolymer composition will drift as the preferences for monomers change due to the interaction between reactivity ratios and the instantaneous concentration of each monomer. Composition drift in some degree will occur unless the reactivity ratios for both monomers are equal to 1. In this case, each monomer prefers reaction with itself and the other monomer equally. This causes equal rates of consumption for copolymer formation and leads to random copolymerization. == Mole fractions == the mole fraction of monomer added instantaneously to copolymer that is a monomer 1. the instantaneous mole fraction of monomer mix that is monomer 1. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Composition drift」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
