Models of chain addition polymerizations have been analyzed for effects of reaction parameters on thermal behavior during reaction and, consequently, on properties of the polymer formed. Emphasis was placed on the investigation of thermal drift phenomena in particular. Several dimensionless parameters were identified and their role in predicting thermal behavior was established.
