From Living Carbocationic to Living Radical Polymerization.

Abstract

'Living' carbocationic polymerization is compared to 'living' radical process. Similarities and differences are discussed. 'Living' radical polymerization of vinyl acetate and methyl methacrylate to provide polymers with controlled molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distribution (M sub w/M sub n<1.2) are presented.
