Observed rate constants obtained from fitting [A]_t or [B]_t using Finke-Watzky equations

Initial concentration of monomer	Appearance of polymer by turbidity		Disappearance of monomer by FCS
	k1 (h−1)	k2 (μM−1 h−1)	k1 (h−1)	k2 (μM−1 h−1)
50 μM	0.0023 ± 0.0034	0.0096 ± 0.0045	0.014 ± 0.019	0.018 ± 0.008
100 μM	0.0010 ± 0.0006	0.0081 ± 0.00081	0.045 ± 0.03	0.013 ± 0.003
200 μM	0.0010 ± 0.0003	0.0043 ± 0.0002	0.34 ± 0.09	0.007 ± 0.002

The rate constants were obtained from fitting the model to the data collected at 45°C with continuous stirring (500 rpm).
