Initiation (chemistry)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Chain Initiation: A free radical reaction mechanism step that has no radical reactant (s) and give radical product (s).
In chemistry, initiation is a chemical reaction that triggers one or more secondary reactions. Often the initiation reaction generates a reactive intermediate from a stable molecule which is then involved in secondary reactions. In polymerisation, initiation is followed by a chain reaction and termination.[1]
