Polymers have become one of the largest and most important materials we use in daily life.
Their popularity has stemmed from their wide range of material properties combined with …

In a conventional living ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), an equal number
of ruthenium complexes to the number of polymer chains synthesized are required. This can …

The development of “controlled” and “living” polymerization processes with high end‐group
fidelity has enabled an unprecedented range of polymeric materials with specific chain‐end …

The leakage of organic solvent during the transportation and storage is one of the major
threats to the environment. Networks/gels acting as the absorbing materials for organic …

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

This is a review of papers published in the year 2016 that focus on the synthesis, reactivity,
