Abstract: The photopolymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) initiated by phenothia-zine (PTZ) has been studied. The kinetic equation was determined to be Rp =Rp=K[AN]1.47[PTZ]0.41 and the activation energy of polymerization (Ea) is 7.1 Kcal/mol. Through the fluorescence spectra studies, the exciplex formation between the excited PTZand ANmonomer and an initiation mechanism involving its decomposition have been proposed.
