The homopolymerization of MTMP and the copodymerization of this monomer with styrene were investigated. Homopolymerizations of styrene and methyl meth-acrylate were performed separately in the presence of model compound
4-hydroxy-2
2
6
6-tetramethyl piperidine
under identical conditions. In the above polymerization with AIBN as initiator
the inhibition effect of compounds bearing piperidinyl imino group
is not obvious. The influence of solvents on the copolymerization of MTMP with styrene was discussed.
