[a]

Conditions are [1000]:[10]:[1] of [BA]:[DBMM]:[PC] with 1.0 eq. DMAc to BA by volume and irradiated by 365 nm LEDs. Batch reactions are conducted under ambient temperatures and flow reactions at 22 ºC.

[b]

Determined by 1H NMR.

[c]

Measured using GPC.

[d]

Calculated by (Conv. × [Mon]/[RX] × Mw,Mon)/1000.

[e]

Initiator efficiency (I*) calculated by (Theo. Mn/Calc. Mn) × 100.
