The polymerization of chloral, first reported by Liebig1 in1832, has been demonstrated to occur when initiated with an-ions or with certain acids. 2 Polychloral is ordinarily ob-tained as an intractable powder. Though plugs and thin films have been obtained20 and copolymers with substantial amounts of dichloroacetaldehyde have been cast into sheets, 28 a general method for preparing objects of polychloral and chloral has not been available. It is our purpose here to describe a procedure that we have found effective for obtaining coherent chloral polymers in predetermined shapes. Our procedure is a monomer-casting process3 involving a technique we call cryotachensic polymerization. 4 In this process, initiation (I) and propagation (II) occur in two separate and distinct steps. In the first step, initiator is added to monomer that has been heated above the maximum temperature at which polymerization will occur. This temperature is about 58 for pure chloral and is reduced by addition of diluents. It is related to the ceiling temperature 7C and is equal to 7C for a 1 M solution of monomer.
