In the polymerization process of methyl methacrylate (MMA), the Arrhenius parameters (activation energy and frequency factor) of propagating reaction monotonically decrease with increasing monomer conversion. At the beginning and middle stage of the propagating reaction, the increase of radical chain length is the main reason of above mentioned change. And at the end stage, the sharp decrease of k_p indicates that the activation energy is approximately incline to zero and the propagating reaction is controlled by molecular diffusion motion.
