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

Alkoxyamines represent a versatile class of compounds central to the advancement of controlled radical polymerisation. By undergoing a reversible homolytic cleavage of the C–ON bond, they generate a ...

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 ...

The free-radical retrograde-precipitation polymerization (FRRPP) process was discovered by the G. Caneba at Michigan Tech in the 1990s as a chain polymerization method, whereby phase separation is ...

Chances are good that if you’ve done any 3D printing, it was of the standard fused deposition modeling variety. FDM is pretty simple stuff — get a bit of plastic filament hot enough, squeeze the ...

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 ...
