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 ...

Owing to the many advantages over step-growth polymerizations, chain-growth polymerization has been utilized in a variety of controlled polymer synthesis, including many important industrial processes ...

Biopolymers, such as proteins and nucleic acids, are defined by their highly specialized functions that arise from their perfectly controlled primary structures, that is, sequence regulation of repeat ...

A catalyst developed at KAUST could be the key to structural diversity in polymer materials and industrial-scale polymerizations involving multiple monomers. The catalyst transforms a mixture of three ...
