The development of polymer synthesis methods utilizing diazocarbonyl compounds as monomers. For over 20 years, the Ihara ...

Ihara, et al., Macromolecules, 36, 36 (2003)), intensive efforts have been devoted to this C1 polymerization by many groups around the world. A structure of the Pd-based initiators was devised ...

The modeling evaluated the effect of five key variables in the polymerization process: the concentration of the initiator, the ratio of solvent to monomer, the proportion of styrene, the ...

Other analytical efforts are directed toward a better understanding of existing biomaterials and polymerization processes in general. We are developing new monomers based on free radical ...

A structure of the Pd-based initiators was devised, leading to success in improving their activity for C1 polymerization. For example, it is now possible to prepare high molecular weight polymers ...
