Summary The polymerization of hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene (trimer) is studied in different solvents. A soluble low molecular weight polymer is obtained when benzene is the solvent, a highly cross-linked polymer when cyclohexane is the solvent, and a mixture of soluble and insoluble polymers results when the solvent is chlorobenzene. The conversion-concentration curve for the trimer shows a dependence of the amount of soluble and insoluble polymer formed on the trimer concentration. No polymerization took place when the solvent was toluene, nitrobenzene or THF, but a reaction between solvent and trimer was detected.
