Journal ArticleDOI
"Green" atom transfer radical polymerization: from process design to preparation of well-defined environmentally friendly polymeric materials.
TL;DR: “Green”
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanostructured functional materials prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization
TL;DR: The fundamentals of the technique are discussed, along with how it can be used to synthesize macromolecules with controlled molecular architecture, and how their self-assembly can create nanostructured functional materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macromolecular Engineering by Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization
TL;DR: This Perspective presents recent advances in macromolecular engineering enabled by ATRP with emphasis on various catalytic/initiation systems that use parts-per-million concentrations of Cu catalysts and can be run in environmentally friendly media, e.g., water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diminishing catalyst concentration in atom transfer radical polymerization with reducing agents

TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of initiators for continuous activator regeneration (ICAR) in atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is introduced, whereby a constant source of organic free radicals works to regenerate the CuI activator, which is otherwise consumed in termination reactions when used at very low concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding atom transfer radical polymerization: effect of ligand and initiator structures on the equilibrium constants.
Wei Tang,Yungwan Kwak,Wade A. Braunecker,Nicolay V. Tsarevsky,Michelle L. Coote,Krzysztof Matyjaszewski +5 more
TL;DR: Equilibrium constants in Cu-based atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) were determined for a wide range of ligands and initiators in acetonitrile at 22 degrees C and excellent correlations of the equilibrium constants with the Cu(II/I) redox potentials and the carbon-halogen bond dissociation energies were observed.
