Controlled radical polymerization (CRP) techniques, such as reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and nitroxide-mediated ...

The overall objective of this work is to develop a novel methodology of surface modification, which can be broadly applied to polymer networks such as elastomer and hydrogel. Two types of ...

Controlled radical polymerization is a means of manufacturing highly branched three-dimensional macromolecules known as hyperbranched polymers. It might employ inimers, compounds containing an ...

The synthesis of polymers has always been limited in scope because most chemical reactions are highly sensitive to oxygen. The use of robots has the potential to greatly increase not only the speed of ...
