Free radical polymerization


1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data

When heating the methyl methacrylate reaction (methyl methacrylate and dibenzoyl peroxide) to 90-95oC, why do bubbles evolve from the solution?

2. Relevant equations

None

3. The attempt at a solution

I'm not sure why the bubbles form. Any hints or helpful websites?
