The kinetics of diallyldimethylammonium chloride aqueous solution polymerization whose kinetic mechanism is very complex and unknown

was investigated in a Dewar-reactor by adiabatic calorimetry by applying ammonium peroxydisulfate of 2

2′-azobis ( 2-aminopropane ) as initiator.The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were simulated by numerical method.It was found that the calculated values coincided with the experimental data

but there were some differences between the simulated parameters and the published data.It was considered that the differences were caused by the first order assmption of ammonium peroxydisulfate decomposition and the neglect of the side reaction effects in the literature.
