Why should the monomers used in addition polymerisation through free radical pathway be very pure?

Options

  1. APure monomers are required to reduce the cost of polymerization.
  2. BPure monomers are required to increase the reaction rate.
  3. CPure monomers are required because even the traces of impurities may act like inhibitors which leads to the fo
  4. DPure monomers are required to enhance the colour of the polymer.

Correct answer

C. Pure monomers are required because even the traces of impurities may act like inhibitors which leads to the fo

Step-by-step solution

Correct Option is : (C) Pure monomers are required because even the traces of impurities may act like inhibitors which leads to the formation of polymers with shorter chain length.
