Advanced Polymer Synthesis and Characterization

This cluster of papers focuses on the advances in living radical polymerization techniques, including atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT), and nitroxide-mediated polymerization. It also explores the application of click chemistry, self-assembly of block copolymers, and the synthesis of functional polymers such as vesicles and micelles.
