Question

Addition (chain-growth) polymerization reactions
often terminate by combination or
disproportionation. However, there is another class
of deactivation reactions, called chain transfer
reactions, which are usually relevant to the final
degree of polymerization (dp). How might you
expect the dp of a polymerization reaction
deactivated by chain transfer compare/contrast
with polymerizations terminated by combination or
disproportionation?
