  2. Radical polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_polymerization

    In polymer chemistry, free-radical polymerization (FRP) is a method of polymerization by which a polymer forms by the successive addition of free-radical building blocks (repeat units). Free radicals can be formed by a number of different mechanisms, usually involving separate initiator molecules .

  3. Reversible addition−fragmentation chain-transfer polymerization

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversible_addition%E2%88...

    RAFT is one of the most versatile methods of controlled radical polymerization because it is tolerant of a very wide range of functionality in the monomer and solvent, including aqueous solutions. [7] RAFT polymerization has also been effectively carried out over a wide temperature range.

  4. Atom transfer radical polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_Transfer_Radical...

    Atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is an example of a reversible-deactivation radical polymerization. Like its counterpart, ATRA, or atom transfer radical addition, ATRP is a means of forming a carbon-carbon bond with a transition metal catalyst. Polymerization from this method is called atom transfer radical addition polymerization ...

  5. Reversible-deactivation radical polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversible-deactivation...

    The expression ‘controlled radical polymerization’ is sometimes used to describe a radical polymerization that is conducted in the presence of agents that lead to e.g. atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), nitroxide-(aminoxyl) mediated polymerization (NMP), or reversible-addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization.

  6. Living free-radical polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Living_free-radical...

    Living free radical polymerization is a type of living polymerization where the active polymer chain end is a free radical.Several methods exist. IUPAC recommends [1] to use the term "reversible-deactivation radical polymerization" instead of "living free radical polymerization", though the two terms are not synonymous.

  7. Nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitroxide-mediated_radical...

    Nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization is a method of radical polymerization that makes use of an nitroxide initiator to generate polymers with well controlled stereochemistry and a very low dispersity. [1] It is a type of reversible-deactivation radical polymerization. A chain growth step in a nitroxide mediated polymerization process.

  8. Polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymerization

    For example, for the polymerization of ethylene, 93.6 kJ of energy are released per mole of monomer. [8] The manner in which polymerization is conducted is a highly evolved technology. Methods include emulsion polymerization, solution polymerization, suspension polymerization, and precipitation polymerization.

  9. Graft polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graft_polymer

    Different techniques such as anionic grafting, cationic grafting, atom-transfer radical polymerization, and free-radical polymerization have been used in the synthesis of grafting from copolymers. Graft copolymers that are employed with the grafting-from method are often synthesized with ATRP reactions and anionic and cationic grafting techniques.
