A multiblock copolymer is a polymer of a specific structure that consists of multiple covalently
linked segments, each comprising a different monomer type. The control of the monomer …

Synthetic polymers are omnipresent in society as textiles and packaging materials, in
construction and medicine, among many other important applications. Alternatively, natural …

This Perspective summarizes the features and limitations of reversible addition–
fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, highlighting its strengths and …

Recently, polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) has become widely recognized as a
robust and efficient route to produce block copolymer nanoparticles of controlled size …

The requirement for deoxygenation in controlled/living radical polymerisation (CLRP) places
significant limitations on its widespread implementation by necessitating the use of large …

Covalently crosslinked materials, classically referred to as thermosets, represent a broad
class of elastic materials that readily retain their shape and molecular architecture through …

This Perspective outlines recent advances concerning the formation and potential uses of
block copolymer micelles, a class of soft-matter-based nanoparticles of growing importance …

Stimuli-responsive polymers adapt to their surrounding environment. These polymers are
capable of responding to a variety of external stimuli, which include optical, electrical …

This paper provides a third update to the review of reversible deactivation radical
polymerization (RDRP) achieved with thiocarbonylthio compounds (ZC (= S) SR) by a …

It is well-known that surfactants are molecules able to modify the surface properties of the
liquid in which they are introduced (usually water). The simultaneous presence of both …
