Cationic polymerization represents a pivotal technique in modern polymer chemistry, enabling the synthesis of polymers via the formation of carbocationic intermediates. This mechanism is highly ...
The creation of plastics from polymers is now an old industry. So, there are many methods, sub-methods, and specific synthetic variations now used by academics and industry scientists to create ...
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 ...

Researchers at Cornell University have devised a new single-molecule microscopy method for studying polymers as they grow (Nat Chem. 2023 DOI: 10.1038/s41557-023-01363-2). “We see every monomer,” says ...
A joint team led by Prof. Wu Kai and Assoc. Prof. Zhou Xiong at the College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering, Peking University, and Li Yongwang at Synfuels China Technology Co., Ltd. have ...
Controlled radical polymerization is a means of manufacturing highly branched three-dimensional macromolecules known as hyperbranched polymers. It might employ inimers, compounds containing an ...
