The objective of this study is to explore the relationship between active oxygen content and the performance of peroxide-based radical initiators in polymerization processes. By varying the active oxygen content, we aim to determine its influence on key polymerization parameters such as initiation rate, decomposition rate, and molecular weight distribution of the resulting polymer.

Hi, oxygen inhibits polymerization by quenching the excited states of the initiator. This is usually an undesired effect naturally present due to atmospheric oxygen dissolved in the liquid resin but could be also done intentionally in some specific applications (e.g., in nanofabrication).
