I performed an anionic polymerization of propylene sulfide and did a kinetic study with time. After performing GPC, it seems my polymer stops growing well below the target molecular weight and actually starts to decrease. After I extracted the GPC data and plotted it, the polymer seems to be growing as the elution time decreases with increasing time.

Dear Oluwaseyi Shofolawe-Bakare, ROP of propylene sulfide is sensitive to the type of initiator. Please check the following links. My Regards
