Conditions for azeotropic copolymerization derived for irreversible systems are not satisfactory for reversible copolymerizations. The presented theoretical treatment leads to formulation of conditions for a terminal (dyad) model equilibrium copolymerization to form copolymer azeotropes. Numerical simulations of kinetics of copolymer formation confirm validity of the derived relationships between rate and equilibrium constants and comonomer concentrations.
