Click chemistry is one of the most powerful strategies for constructing polymeric soft
materials with precise control over architecture and functionality. In this review, we provide a …

Functional polyolefins (ie, polyethene or polypropene bearing functional groups) are highly
desired materials, due to their beneficial surface properties. Many different pathways exist …

Nonbiodegradable plastics with inert and saturated C–C backbones comprise the majority of
global annual plastics produced, including the ubiquitous polyolefins (polyethylene and …

With a span as long as the history of polymer science itself, post‐polymerization modification
represents a versatile platform for the preparation of diversely functionalized polymers from …

A dibenzobarrelene‐bridged, α‐diimine NiII catalyst (rac‐3) was synthesized and shown to
have exceptional behavior for the polymerization of ethylene. The catalyst afforded high …

This chapter highlights the current status of critically selected post‐functionalization
techniques of polymers via orthogonal ligation chemistry, reports the major characteristics of …

Polymer modification has been practiced since the very early technological development of
human kind by transforming natural resources into value-added commodities. Ever since the …

Highly conductive solid polymer electrolytes were generated by blending linear poly
(ethyleneimine)-graft-poly (ethylene glycol) with linear poly (ethyleneimine) bearing lithium …

Functional polypropylenes (FPs) are regarded as versatile building blocks for next-
generation materials; however, their development has been stymied due to current synthetic …
