Polymer industries depend on the spontaneous polymerization of molecules into chains in response to an appropriate trigger. We have succeeded in inducing and guiding chain polymerization over tiny ...

Polymerization reactions and resulting molecular weight distributions; modeling of polymerization kinetics; batch, continuous stirred tank and tubular flow reactor design for optimal polymerizations; ...

The first polymerization process involves opening the circular monomer and stitching many of them together, creating a long, open chain. Flexible and soft ... retains a double bond that is needed to ...

In this study, the researchers demonstrated the initiation of polymerization reactions, such as reversible ...

Times and temperatures may need to be adapted to suit the particular reaction conditions. Polymerization should be carried out for 1 min for every 1,000 bp of length of the target DNA.

Polyisocyanides are polymers distinguished by their helical structures, where the helix's winding direction (right- or left-handed) can be controlled through catalysts designed for synthesizing ...
