chain transfer [′chān ‚tranz·fər]
(organic chemistry)
The abstraction of an atom from another molecule (initiator, monomer, polymer, or solvent) by the radical end of a growing (addition) polymer, which simultaneously terminates the polymer chain and creates a new radical capable of chain polymerization; also occurs in cationic polymerization.

Besides, increasing peroxide concentration can promote chain transfer reactions to the monomers that will result in either homopolymerization of the monomer, which could reduce the concentrations of the available monomer for grafting reaction or side chain formation from the grafted amide N--H.

The kinetics of curing helps us understand how the concentration of monomer/oligomer, concentration of PI, extinction coefficient of PI, thickness of ink, intensity of radiation, reactivity ratios of monomer/oligomer, temperature, activation energies of monomer/oligomer and chain transfer reactions affect the curing of ink.
