S/O and vinyl isomerization enables ultrafast cationic ring-opening polymerization toward CO 2-derived polythioester with migrated in-chain C=C substituents The ring-opening polymerization of ...

A controlled/“living” click polymerization method developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo and Nagoya University enables precise chain-growth of AB-type monomers—traditionally limited to ...

Many materials in the modern world--from the plastics that dominate it to the electronic chips that drive it--are constructed of polymers. Given their ubiquity and the evolving requirements of our ...

The current use of metal catalysts to develop polymers leads to suboptimal quality polymers that contain metallic impurities and involves a reaction process that is not environment friendly. Now, ...

A catalyst-free method for pulling apart certain polymers could help speed the industrial adoption of controlled radical polymerization—a polymer-building reaction that’s popular with researchers but ...

Metal-organic networks have gained much attention due to their high surface areas and tunable structures, which underpin ...
