Demanding synthetic polymers with properties of the optical, electrical, hydrophobic, thermo-
and chemical stability, cyclic olefin copolymers (COCs) have been quickly developed for the …

This review focuses on recent progress made using well-defined molecular chromium
complexes that, upon suitable activation, can catalyze the tri-, tetra, oligo-and/or …

Abstract Group 4 metal (Zr, Ti, Hf) catalysts for olefin polymerization and specifically those
based on non-metallocene complexes have continued to be a subject of intense study in …

Recent progress concerning the application of compartmentalized bimetallic complexes as
homogeneous catalysts in ethylene polymerization is reviewed with particular regard to …

Aliphatic polyesters such as polylactide (PLA) and polycaprolactone (PCL) have attracted
much attention due to their prominent features of environmentally friendly materials with …

Since the pioneering work of highly active α-diimine palladium/nickel catalysts in 1995 by
Brookhart, late transition metal catalysts have been extensively and deeply investigated …

The aim of designing multinuclear catalysts for olefin polymerization is to have the best
control on the catalyst behavior and final polymer properties. This control is in relation to …

Polyolefins account for two thirds by weight of the global synthetic polymers. There are more
than 300 grades of commercial polyolefins, whose properties depend on their …

A series of manganese (I) carbonyl complexes bearing structurally related NN-and NNN-
chelating ligands have been synthesized and assessed as catalysts for transfer …

This chapter encompasses and highlights the recent development of tridentate ligand-based
iron catalysts used in the catalysis of ethylene with particular focus to cover all the structural …
