A significant example for modulating molecular weight distributions (MWDs) in living anionic
polymerization (LAP) based on the “locked–unlocked” feature is reported. The locked …

We have achieved breakthroughs for the efficient synthesis of linear polydicyclopentadiene
(pDCPD) via photoredox mediated metal-free ring-opening metathesis polymerization (MF …

In this study, single lap shear experiments with Al2024-T3 substrates were used to evaluate
poly (dicyclopentadiene)(pDCPD) for structural adhesive applications. A wide range of …

Radical chemistry is one of the most important methods used in modern polymer science
and industry. Over the past century, new knowledge on radical chemistry has both promoted …

Due to unique characteristics of 1-(tri-isopropoxymethylsilylphenyl)-1phenylethylene (DPE-
Si (OiPr) 3), quantitative locked (the living species became dormant for endcapping with …

Investigations of a number of photochemical cross-linking reactions are reported for the
preparation of functional polymeric materials. Reactions that require constant inputs of light …

Polymers are used in nearly every facet of life, from food storage to medical technologies,
greatly impacting the world and making modern life possible. The field of polymer science …

Part I: Current approaches to synthesize π-conjugated polymers are dominated by thermally
driven, transition-metal-mediated reactions. Herein we7 show that electron-deficient …
