This review is an extensive update to the comprehensive review on controlled/living radical polymerization (CLRP) in dispersed systems published in 2008. 1 A note on nomenclature: we recognize that an IUPAC task group has recommended the use of the term “reversible deactivation radical polymerization”(RDRP); 2 however, throughout this review the older term CLRP is used to avoid possible confusion. Several reviews on CLRP (some only covering specific CLRP techniques) in dispersed systems were published before 2009, 3− 13 and Cunningham and Monteiro 14 reviewed the field in 2012 in a nonexhaustive report focusing on prospects of commercial development of CLRP processes in dispersed systems. CLRP is by now well-established in polymer chemistry and has been reviewed extensively. 15− 18 In short, CLRP enables one to synthesize a wide range of structurally advanced and welldefined …
