Description:: Industrial processes heavily rely on catalysts to control product selectivity and lower energy barriers required for chemical transformations. Catalysts are most commonly solid heterogeneous catalysts that facilitate separations from reaction mixtures and enhance recyclability. Heterogeneous catalysts used in industrial processes exhibit efficacious results, but in certain instances drawing structure-function relationships...

Description:: Bimetallic polymerization catalysis represents a small, though active, area of research due largely to the interesting properties observed in the resulting product polymers, including higher molecular weight, increased comonomer incorporation, and enhanced tacticity. Current work is focused on furthering an understanding of the active catalytic species that give rise to...

Description:: Free radical polymerization has a wide range of applications and continues to attract research interest as the demand for tailored specialty polymers grows. Sequence distribution, tacticity and composition of copolymers play a key role in understanding the reaction kinetics and the properties of the polymers 1. One of the chief...
