Photo-Iniferter RAFT Polymerization

Matthias Hartlieb

Summary: Light-mediated RAFT polymerization offers advantages such as high spatial and temporal control, versatility with various monomers, and operation under mild conditions. The use of light to drive the RAFT process is possible through multiple pathways, including direct activation of the chain transfer agent in a photo-iniferter process.

High Tm Poly(l-lactide)s by Means of Bismuth Catalysts?

Hans R. Kricheldorf et al.

Summary: The addition of difunctional cocatalysts can lead to the formation of high T-m crystallites in poly(l-lactide) during the polymerization process. Additionally, an unusual enthalpy-driven modification of the molecular weight distribution is observed in samples that have crystallized during polymerization.
