Abstract

It has long been well known that branching polymers in solution can undergo a transition from a liquid state, the sol phase, to a gel phase characterized by the existence of an infinite macromolecule[1]. In this paper we shall consider the case of additive polymerization where the molecules are growing by free radical reactions:
