A series of divinyl monomers of the formula {article}{empty}{document}( CH₂ = CHC₆ H₄ - )₂ X{document} where × is CH 2 , CH 2 CH 2 , CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 , CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 ,O, and S have been prepared from the carbinols by dehydration and copolymerized with styrene. The kinetic data are consistent with a copolymerization in which the two vinyl groups react independently. The divinyl monomer behaves as two equivalents of a vinyl monomer to give solutions for the copolymerization equation in which r 1 (for styrene) varies from 0.61 to 1.13 and r 2 (for the divinyl compound) varies from 0.78 to 1.51.
