Statistical, Gradient, Block and Graft Copolymers by Controlled/Living Radical Polymerizations

by Kelly A. Davis and Krzysztof Matyjaszewski

Book Overview

The design and the realisation of well defined polymer architectures has become an important goal in macromolecular science. The prerequisite for achieving this goal is the availability of controlled polymerisation reactions. Living anionic polymerisation was the first reaction fulfilling these requirements. Cationic polymerisation only came into play when it was realised that it was possible to create an equilibrium between active and dormant species...
