Ceiling temperature

Ceiling temperature

For addition (chain) polymerization, the temperature at which the propagation and depropagation rates are equal, that is, the net rate of polymer formation is zero. Above the ceiling temperture, depolymerization, an unzipping reaction to reform monomer, occurs.
