1. The use of the adjective "living" to describe a radical process that displays the attributes of a living polymerization is preferred over other terms that have been advocated in this context (e.g., "controlled", "controlled/living", "pseudo living" or "living polymerization with reversible deactivation") even though some side reactions (radical-radical termination) must inevitably complicate the process.

35. -4 mol) in benzene (0.5 mL) were prepared. Spectra were obtained on aliquots (0.5 mL) of these solutions that had been carefully transferred into quartz ESR tubes and degassed by purging with nitrogen for 5 min and flame-sealed.
36. ESR spectra were recorded on a Bruker ER 200D-SRC spectrometer, equipped with a universal X-band (9.4 GHz) cavity using 100 kHz field modulation, 0.5 G amplitude and 63 mW microwave power. The high power enabled rapid spectrum acquisition. Data acquisition, analysis, and simulation was performed with the Bruker EPRSRC software package.
