Abstract :
The paper focusses on reference model control of a continuous stirred tank reactor for solution polymerization of methylmethacrylate. The reactor is a nonsquare plant with more outputs than inputs. Two schemes are employed both of which under certain conditions, ensure global stabilization of the reactor.
