An experimental study of the bulk free radical polymerization of ethyl acrylate (EA) initiated by 2,2′‐azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) was conducted. The experiments were carried out based on a factorial design with replicates. The reaction variables investigated were initiator concentration, temperature and chain transfer agent (CTA) concentration (primary octanethiol). The results obtained were used to develop and test a simulation model for EA homopolymerization.
