Despite the difficulties associated with controlling the polymerization of ring-strained
nitrogen containing monomers, the resulting polymers have many important applications …

Polymerizing epoxides after cyclic esters remains a major challenge, though their block
copolymers have been extensively studied and used for decades. Reported here is a simple …

Polymers have become one of the largest and most important materials we use in daily life.
Their popularity has stemmed from their wide range of material properties combined with …

In the quest for sustainable development, degradable polymers are attractive alternatives to
traditional fossil-based plastics. As monocomponent degradable polymers often suffer from …

The chemistry of α-amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs) has a history of over 100 years,
but precise and efficient ring-opening polymerization methods for NCAs remain highly …

The synthesis of well-defined block copolymers from a mixture of monomers without
additional actions (“one-pot/one-step”) is an ideal and industrially valuable method. In …

Switchable catalysis, in combination with epoxide-involved ring-opening (co)
polymerization, is a powerful technique that can be used to synthesize various oxygen-rich …

Abstract An immortal N‐(diphenylphosphanyl)‐1, 3‐diisopropyl‐4, 5‐dimethyl‐1, 3‐dihydro‐
2H‐imidazol‐2‐imine/diisobutyl (2, 6‐di‐tert‐butyl‐4‐methylphenoxy) aluminum (P (NIiPr) …

The bulk radical polymerization of bis (aziridine) with molten elemental sulfur resulted in
brittle, cross‐linked polymers. However, when the bis (aziridine) was treated with elemental …

Phthalic anhydride and propylene/ethylene oxide are copolymerized at room temperature by
a bicomponent metal-free catalyst comprising a mild phosphazene base and triethylborane …
