Mechanistic insight into TEMPO-inhibited polymerisation: simultaneous determination of oxygen and inhibitor concentrations by EPR.
Convolution-based fitting of EPR spectra makes it possible to simultaneously determine concentrations of TEMPO and oxygen in TEMPO-inhibited polymerisations and autoxidations; this method is useful for understanding the chemistry of inhibitor mixtures.
