Coordinative chain transfer polymerization, CCTP, is a degenerative chain transfer
polymerization process that has a wide range of applications. It allows a highly controlled …

Polyolefins have dominated materials technology over the last century and remain among
the most used materials, despite environmental problems have emerged and their public …

Less than 10% of plastics are recycled worldwide, among which polyolefins, which form two-
thirds of all produced polymers, are the most discarded ones. This stems from the nonpolar …

Plastics offer several advantages, but their production and disposal processes have severe
environmental implications. To overcome these issues, there is a need to switch from the …

Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) have found use in a wide range of applications, such as
adhesives, elastomers, coatings, fibers, and in additive manufacturing techniques such as …

Polyolefin thermoplastic elastomers (TPE‐Os) are high‐performance polyolefins consisting
of both plastic and rubber phases. Compared with other thermoplastic elastomers, the TPE …

As the saturation rate of the bulk polyolefin market accelerates, the development of high
value-added polyolefins becomes increasingly urgent. Particular attention is directed …

We report the design and synthesis of an α-diimine PdII catalyst that copolymerizes
functionalized and long chain α-olefins to produce semicrystalline polyethylene materials …

Abstract α-Diimine nickel and palladium catalyzed α-olefin polymerization could produce
polyolefins with complicated branching structures due to the chain walking feature. The …

Semicrystalline polyethylene (PE) and amorphous poly (ethylene-co-norbornene)
copolymers have been used in a wide variety of applications, especially in packaging. It is a …
