Quiz 5 PVC (polyvinylichloride) is a great polymer material which can be synthetically made and is involved in numerous household items. It is made with the radical reaction of vinyl chloride (sbleroethene. Give a simplified radical reaction mechanism (nitiation, propagation, termination steps) for this substance. Use hydrogen peroxide as your radical initiator and for your propagation, limit it to at most two vinyl chlorides attached to each other. I've put some of the structures which you should be using to help, mainly the ones you're starting with and the ones which I want you to ultimately end with. Termination products Starting Material HOOH ?? CI OH Cl ?? Cl OHI
