Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) represents a particularly interesting method among the living polymerization techniques. A unique feature of all metathesis polymerizations is the ...

The oxidative polymerization of thiophene derivatives was carried out using palladium (II) acetate as a catalyst in combination with copper (II) acetate and trifluoroacetic acid under an oxygen ...

Researchers at Cornell University have devised a new single-molecule microscopy method for studying polymers as they grow (Nat Chem. 2023 DOI: 10.1038/s41557-023-01363-2). “We see every monomer,” says ...
