Comparison of structurally analogous Zn2, Co2, and Mg2 catalysts for the polymerization of cyclic esters
Laurie E. Breyfogle,Charlotte K. Williams,Victor G. Young,Marc A. Hillmyer,William B. Tolman +4 more
TL;DR: Three dimetallic monoethoxide complexes supported by a binucleating phenoxide ligand, LM2Cl2OEt, were prepared and shown by X-ray crystallography to be structurally analogous, implicating complicated effects of metal ion variation in these polymerizations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zinc N-heterocyclic carbene complexes and their polymerization of d,l-lactide
TL;DR: A series of zinc complexes of monodentate N-heterocyclic carbenes and a new sterically bulky bidentate pyridyl-NHC ligand have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic methods as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strong, Resilient, and Sustainable Aliphatic Polyester Thermoplastic Elastomers
TL;DR: This study aims to demonstrate how the outstanding properties in these sustainable materials are a result of the entanglements, glass transition temperature, segment-segment interaction parameter, and crystallinity, resulting in comparable properties to the commercially relevant styrene-based TPEs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multicompartment micelles from polyester-containing ABC miktoarm star terpolymers
TL;DR: In this article, a mid-hydroxyl-functionalized poly(ethylethylene)-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEE−PEO) diblock copolymer served as a macroinitiator for the aluminum-mediated ROP of γ-methyl-e-caprolactone (MCL), leading to a family of μ-EOC triblock Copolymers having monomodal molecular weight distributions and controlled PMCL weight fractions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of ABA Triblock Copolymers by a Tandem ROMP−RAFT Strategy
TL;DR: In this paper, a symmetric, acyclic olefin possessing trithiocarbonate moieties, available in two synthetic steps from commercially available starting materials, is demonstrated to act as a chain transfer agent (CTA) in ring opening metathesis polymerizations (ROMP).
