Aqueous free-radical precipitation polymerization is one of the most useful methods to prepare the uniformly sized hydrogel microspheres (microgels), and an understanding of the polymerization ...

The creation of plastics from polymers is now an old industry. So, there are many methods, sub-methods, and specific synthetic variations now used by academics and industry scientists to create ...

Polymerization in a batch reactor can be easily controlled by monitoring the dielectric properties. Prior studies have demonstrated that the free-radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate can be ...

A team of chemistry and materials science experts has created a novel way to overcome one of the major hurdles preventing the widespread use of controlled radical polymerization. A team of chemistry ...
