Ring-opening metathesis polymerisation (ROMP) has become a popular method for
synthesising complex functional polymers owing to the high functional group tolerance of …

Commercially available Vince lactam and its derivatives are copolymerized with 2, 3-
dihydrofuran (DHF) in a living fashion based on the unique reactivity of Ru Fischer carbene …

A catalytic living ring‐opening metathesis copolymerization (ROMP) method is described
that relies on a degenerative, reversible and regioselective exchange of propagating Fischer …

Polyethylene is a highly apolar polymer with very poor adhesion to most substrates,
necessitating the use of tie layers. Therefore, the synthesis of functional polyethylene is a …

Silyl-modified polymers (SMPs) are alkoxysilyl functionalized polymers of high importance
both academically and industrially. SMPs are being developed for coating, adhesive …

Vinyl ether based macro-chain transfer agents (m-CTAs) are used to produce different di or
tri-block copolymers under catalytic living ROMP conditions. Polystyrene (PS) vinyl ether m …

Polythiourethanes (PTUs) crosslinked with dynamic disulfide bonds are synthesized via a
nonisocyanate approach. First, a difunctional five‐membered cyclic trithiocarbonate (1) is …

Regioselective chain transfer agents are used to synthesize narrowly dispersed
heterotelechelic polymers with a 15-fold decrease in catalyst consumption using the pulsed …

Nonisocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) has been extensively studied because of its
sustainability potential. However, the low reactivity of five-membered cyclocarbonates with …

Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of 3-substituted cyclooctene (3RCOE)
monomers with Grubbs 2nd and 3rd generation catalysts (G2 and G3) has been shown to …
