Controlled Polymerization of Next-Generation Renewable Monomers and Beyond
Kejian Yao,Chuanbing Tang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a monomer approach for renewable polymers is presented, which is based on the assumption that natural molecular biomass plays an important role in the field of polymers and can be directly used or derivatized as monomers for controlled polymerization, in a way similar to many petroleum-derived monomers.
