One significant advancement in cationic polymerization is the use of secondary alkyl chlorides in combination with alkyl aluminum compounds as co-initiators for the polymerization of butadiene.

adsorption of monomers and initiator radicals onto a substrate, and (iv) transformation of free-radical polymerization into pV3D3 thin films. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible ...

A structure of the Pd-based initiators was devised, leading to success in improving their activity for C1 polymerization. For example, it is now possible to prepare high molecular weight polymers ...

The modeling evaluated the effect of five key variables in the polymerization process: the concentration of the initiator, the ratio of solvent to monomer, the proportion of styrene, the ...
