This paper investigates liquid chromatography at critical condition (LCCC) for polymer
analysis. Based on controversial claims on the separation of cyclic polymers from linear …

Enzymatic one-pot synthesis procedures in a one-step and two-step monomers addition
were developed to obtain poly (glycerol adipate) macromers with methacrylate end …

This paper reports the synthesis and characterization of polyisobutylene disulfides by living
reversible recombination radical polymerization (R3P). First telechelic thiol-functionalized …

The effect of one-layer polymeric barrier coatings onto flexible and thin polyethylene
terephthalate (PET) film is herein examined towards the blockage of water vapor. It is …

This article demonstrates a new, modular approach to surface functionalization that
harnesses chain entanglement. A layer of functionalized polyisobutylene,(PIB)‐ω, where ω …

The synthesis of poly (isobutylene-bs-caprolactone) diblock and poly (s-caprolactone-b-
isobutylene-bs-caprolactone) triblock copolymers was accomplished using a combination of …

The random copolymers of isobutylene (IB) with polar comonomers of 4-acetoxystyrene
(ACS) or 4-tert-butoxystyrene (TBO), P (IB-co-ACS) and P (IB-co-TBO), could be successfully …

An overview of my 40-year career will be provided, spanning both industry and academe,
and two continents. During my industrial years at LANXESS (formerly the Rubber Division of …

The low-activity cationic monomer tert-butyl-dime1hyl-(4-methyl-pent-4-enyloxy)-silane was
synthesized by Grignard reaction and hydroxyl-protection reaction. Living polyisobutylene …
