Summary
Investigation of the TEMPO-mediated polymerization of styrene at different regimes of addition of AIBN initiator showed that the course of the polymerization could be changed dramatically by a mode of the initiator addition without using any other additives. A very significant acceleration of the polymerization was reached at a specific regime without broadening the polydispersity of the resulting polymer.
