Cover: Secondary reactions in Free Radical Polymerization of Poly(vinyl chloride) are investigated in order to better understand the influence of mid‐chain radicals on both process kinetics and polymer morphology. Individual rate constants of propagation, backbiting, and β‐scission are determined computationally using a quantum chemical approach. Further details can be found in the article by D. Cuccato, M. Dossi, D. Moscatelli,* and G. Storti on page 330 .
