Cover: Composition deviations from the Mayo‐Lewis behavior can be found in nitroxide mediated copolymerizations, which can be understood as arising from competitive equilibria represented by characteristic differences δ XY , as explained in the paper. As illustrated in the picture, these deviations can be attenuated using an additional source of radicals. Copolymerization conditions that maximize or minimize these deviations are reported. Further details can be found in the article by I. Zapata‐González, R. A. Hutchinson, K. Matyjaszewski, E. Saldívar‐Guerra,* and J. Ortiz‐Cisneros on page 245 .
