A controlled/“living” click polymerization method developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo and Nagoya University enables precise chain-growth of AB-type monomers—traditionally limited to ...

A joint team led by Prof. Wu Kai and Assoc. Prof. Zhou Xiong at the College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering, Peking University, and Li Yongwang at Synfuels China Technology Co., Ltd. have ...

The most common method for synthesizing polymers with a carbon–carbon main chain backbone is vinyl polymerization, by which many industrially important polymers, including common plastics such as ...

A new method allows chemists to precisely place single monomers at any position within a polymer chain made of other types of monomers. With this single monomer, chemists can add various types of ...
