Vinyl and vinylidene group formation is detected in the initial stages of polyethylene processing. In the high temperature range (170-200 °C) the amount formed is small but significant. Formation of these double bonds is usually obscured by their rapid consumption. Bimolecular hydroperoxide decomposition does not seem to be an important source for these products in the early stages of processing. Vinyl and vinylidene group formation can be attributed mainly to intramolecular decomposition of special hydroperoxide groups. The data suggest vinyl groups to arise from secondary hydroperoxide groups formed in α-position to methyl branching. Intramolecular hydroperoxide decomposition involving a primary hydrogen atom from the methyl group yields a vinyl group and an aldehyde. Vinylidene groups seem to arise from secondary hydroperoxide groups formed in α-position to quaternary structures that necessarily include one methyl group. Intramolecular hydrogen abstraction of a primary hydrogen atom from the methyl group yields a vinylidene group and an aldehyde. The calculated rate parameters are in agreement with the thermochemical estimations relative to intramolecular abstraction of primary hydrogen atoms for both reactions. Vinyl groups are also formed on bimolecular hydroperoxide decomposition. The yield of vinylidene groups from the last reaction is negligible.
