A “Benchtop” NMR spectrometer is used for detailed monitoring of controlled and free radical polymerisations performed in batch and continuous reactors both offline and in real-time. This allows detailed kinetic analysis with unprecedented temporal resolution for reactions which reach near completion in under five minutes.
