A controlled/"living" click polymerization method developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo and Nagoya University enables precise ...

In that respect, the key mechanism of chain-growth polymerization is reminiscent of a process called translation in protein synthesis. During translation, ribosomes and transfer RNA ...

The polymerization of such monomers produces polymers bearing a main chain of –(X–arylene–Y) n –, regardless of whether the polymerization occurred via step-growth or chain-growth mechanisms.

Step-growth and chain-growth mechanisms both feature in SCVP of inimers. Through altering three polymerization parameters (temperature, ligand and solvents), it is possible to manipulate the ...

Two types of polymerization mechanisms, namely, step-growth and chain-growth polymerization, at the interface between a solid and a liquid, were served as the modification tool, which is referred to ...

Chen says his group has only looked at ROMP processes so far, but the method should work for any chain-growth polymerization mechanism. Chemical & Engineering News. ISSN 0009-2347.

Addition polymerization, also known as chain-growth polymerization, uses a series of different steps termed the initiation, propagation and termination steps. This is a polymerization reaction that ...

With in situ visualization technology, ethylene polymerization can be studied in real time, providing a great impetus for uncovering the ethylene polymerization mechanism. However, the chain ...

In chain-growth polymerization, a chain grows from a catalyst continually to reach thousands of subunits. However, the real-time dynamics of chain growth was unknown until recently.
