Syndiotactic polystyrene and copolymers of styrene and p‐methylstyrene were synthetized in bulk by using a titanium tetraethoxide/methylaluminoxane catalytic system. The polymers were analyzed by 13 C and 1 H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Infrared Spectroscopy, Gel Permeation Chromatography and Differential Scanning Calorimetry and their properties were compared.
