Notes:
The polymerisation of styrene and methylacrylate initiated by hydroperoxides is accelerated in the presence of strong acids such as sulfuric acid, p-toluene-sulfonic acid or perchloric acid. By copolymerising styrene and methylmethacrylate and by phenolic type inhibitors the radical nature of the catalytic effect of the acid was proved. Kinetic experiments demonstrated the acid involvement in the starting reaction.
