In the vast majority of atom transfer radical polymerizations, alkyl bromides or chlorides are commonly employed as initiators. Herein, iodides demonstrated ATRP

Epoxides are frequently used in coatings due to their great adhesion most materials, high resistance towards chemicals and well-defined material properties. Onium salts such as iodonium sulfonium one of the widespread classes initiators light-induced cationic polymerization epoxides. We successfully synthesized onium based on group 14 16 elements periodic table. They were then characterized usi...

UV-initiated cationic frontal polymerization is exploited as a solvent-free, extremely fast, and low-temperature technique to obtain epoxy-based adhesives. Epoxy formulations are prepared by blending commercial resins at different weight ratios adding photo thermal initiators percentages. In addition, the influence of other critical parameters, including joint thickness, nature adherends, tempe...

An efficient strategy for the synthesis of monoamine end-functionalized living polymers using ringopening metathesis polymerization with ruthenium initiators is reported. A new end-capping agent for this purpose was synthesized, and its efficiency for end-functionalization was evaluated using two common ruthenium-based initiators. Finally, terminal cross-metathesis was also explored as another ...

A two-photon polymerization initiator is a kind of nonlinear optical material. With the demand for more efficient initiators in additive manufacturing, there are and related studies. In this paper, four conjugate-extended with different alkane chain lengths were designed synthesized, single-photon, two-photon, photodegradation experiments carried out. Additive manufacturing illustrated that mol...

INTRODUCTION In many resource-limited settings, combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) failure is diagnosed clinically or immunologically. As such, there is a high likelihood that patients may stay on a virologically failing regimen for a substantial period of time. Here, we compared the long-term impact of initiating non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)- versus boosted pro...
