Controlled radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of 2-bromoethanol
TLDR
In this article, the radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene (St) initiated by 2,2'-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) at 60 °C in the presence of haloalkyl alcohol is investigated.Abstract:
The radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene (St) initiated by 2,2’-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) at 60 °C in the presence of haloalkyl alcohol are studied. The influence of structure and concentration of haloalkyl alcohol as a transfer agent are investigated. For the radical polymerization of MMA in the presence of large amount of 2-bromoethanol, controlled radical polymerization is proceeded. The 2-bromoethanol is, thus, one of the transfer agents for radical polymerization to control the molecular weight and the structure of poly(MMA).read more

Free radical polymerization of alkyl methacrylates with N,N-dimethylanilinium p-toluenesulfonate at above ambient temperature: a quasi-living system
TL;DR: N,N-Dimethylanilinium p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA-DMA) has been successfully used as a versatile initiator for the quasi-living free radical polymerization of several alkyl methacrylate monomers such as methyl, ethyl, n-butyl, tert- butyl, and benzyl methACrylates as mentioned in this paper.

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.
