Reversible-deactivation radical polymerization (Controlled/living radical polymerization): From discovery to materials design and applications
Abstract
Abstract Reversible-deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) processes, such as atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and nitroxide mediated polymerization (NMP) have revolutionized polymer synthesis by providing polymer chemists with powerful tools that enable control over architecture, composition and chain length distributions. The user-friendly nature of these procedures have allowed RDRP-derived polymers to be used in the construction of advanced materials with unique and enhanced properties. This review covers the progress of RDRP from its conception to the current state-of-the-art. A brief introduction to the sources of RDRP, general mechanisms, and methodological progressions are presented, and the suite of advanced and highly tailorable materials possible through these techniques is discussed to illustrate the significant potential for even greater impact across multiple disciplines.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
