ATRP Synthesis of Amphiphilic Random, Gradient, and Block Copolymers of 2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl Methacrylate and n-Butyl Methacrylate in Aqueous Media
TLDR
Kinetic studies indicate that the copolymerization is well controlled with molecular weights increasing linearly with conversion and the thermosensitivity and aggregation properties of the random, gradient, and block copolymers significantly depended on the architecture of theCopolymers.About:

Controlled/living radical polymerization: Features, developments, and perspectives
TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent mechanistic developments in the field of controlled/living radical polymerization (CRP) is presented, with particular emphasis on structure-reactivity correlations and "rules" for catalyst selection in ATRP, for chain transfer agent selection in reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, and for the selection of an appropriate mediating agent in stable free radical polymerisation (SFRP), including organic and transition metal persistent radicals.

Stimuli-reponsive polymers and their bioconjugates
Eun Seok Gil,Samuel M. Hudson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on temperature and pH responsive polymer systems and additionally the other stimuli-based responsive polymers will be assessed, which is more helpful to design new approaches because the basic concepts and mechanisms are systematically connected.
