Polymerization Modeling for Relief Systems Design

This 1,3-Buatadiene Polymerization Case Study was presented to the DIERS User Group on April 28-30, 2003 in Philadelphia, PA. Some conclusions that can be drawn from this presentation include: Free radical polymerization models should be run in parallel with thermally initiated polymerization models, It is possible for a free radical/anion initiated polymerization to “jump-start” thermally initiated polymerizations if sufficient initiator is present, and polymerization models are simple and can easily be applied in SuperChems™ for DIERS or other simulation computer codes for performing relief design for reactive systems and process optimization as well.
