A study has been made of end-groups in poly(methyl methacrylate) prepared using benzoyl peroxide as initiator and either 1-(1′-naphthyl)4-phenylbuta-1,3-diene or 1,4-di(1′-naphthyl)buta-1,3-diene as additive. At 60°C, these dienes are 500–600 times as effective as methyl methacrylate in capturing benzoyloxy radicals and more than twice as effective as 1,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-diene.
