Living free-radical polymerization by reversible addition - Fragmentation chain transfer: The RAFT process

TL;DR: The authors proposed a reversible additive-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) method for living free-radical polymerization, which can be used with a wide range of monomers and reaction conditions and in each case it provides controlled molecular weight polymers with very narrow polydispersities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Living free radical polymerization with reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT polymerization): Approaches to star polymers

TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis of multi-arm star polymers by radical polymerization with reversible addition−fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) is described, and two types of RAFT agents, one allowing growth of arms away from the core and the other attached to the core during propagation, were designed, and an example of each was synthesized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chain Transfer to Polymer: A Convenient Route to Macromonomers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the preparation of polyacrylate and polystyrene macromonomers using the catalytic chain transfer (CCT) with cobalt complexes, which does not require the use of an added chain transfer agent or an R-methyl-substituted vinyl monomer as comonomer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tailored Polymers by Free Radical Processes

TL;DR: The RAFT polymerization as mentioned in this paper is a method for the control of free radical polymerization and its use in the preparation of narrow polydispersity polymers of various architectures.

Biodegradable polymer - bioactive moiety conjugates

TL;DR: In this paper, a biodegradable polymer comprising a plurality of releasable bioactive moieties is proposed, with the releasability of releasing the bioactive mixtures at a rate equal to or faster than the biodegradation of the polymer backbone.
