In the present work an examination is made of the kinetics of the oxidative polymerisation of N-ethylaniline in an aqueous hydrochloric acid solution, with ammonium peroxydisulphate as the oxidant. The key role of protolytic equilibria in this process is shown, a kinetic model is proposed, and its parameters are determined.
