A promising strategy for the controlled synthesis of inorganic/polymeric nanocomposites may be sustained by fabricating cross-linked PbS nanoparticles/polymer composite thin films through combining surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and gas/solid reaction. The introduction of Pb ions through the extension of surface-initiated ATRP to the monomers containing metal ions...

This study reported the application of an interactive Open Education Resource, namely, open virtual experiment simulator education tool (OVESET), in teaching kinetics atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) a polymer science classroom. The OVESET ATRP kinetic aims at improving students’ inductive reasoning skills. Students were encouraged to perform experiments systematically examine influe...

Abstract Atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is a well-known technique for controlled polymer synthesis. However, the ATRP usually employed toxic heavy metal ionas as catalyst and was susceptible to molecular oxygen, which made it should be conducted under strictly anoxic condition. Conducting ambient biocompatible conditions major challenge. In this study, cytochrome C explored an effi...

Copolymere sind die Antwort auf limitierten Eigenschaften von Homopolymeren. Um gesamte Vielfalt der verfügbaren Monomere nutzen zu können, werden derzeit Katalysatoren untersucht, in mehr als einem Polymerisationsmechanismus aktiv sind. Eisen-Guanidin-Katalysatoren haben sich bei ROP Lactid außerordentlich erwiesen und zeigen jetzt ihre Vielseitigkeit, indem sie auch ATRP Styrol katalysieren. ...

Cationic polymers with various structures have been widely investigated in the areas of medical diagnostics and molecular biology because of their unique binding properties and capability to interact with biological molecules in complex biological environments. In this work, we report the grafting of a linear cationic polymer from an atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiator bound t...

Surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) is one of the most versatile technique to modify the surface properties of material. Recent developed metal free SIATRP makes such technique more widely applicable. Herein photo-induced metal-free SI-ATRP of methacrylates, such as methyl methacrylate, N-isopropanyl acrylamide, and N,Ndimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, on the surface...

Atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is one of the most popular advanced techniques in macromolecular science, allowing synthesis tailor-made polymers with controlled molecular weight, architecture, composition, and functionality. The combination ATRP ring-opening (ROP) provides a straightforward route for preparation exhibiting both targeted well-defined features biodegradability, which...

sound power is considered as an excellent measure for evaluating the efficiency of noise controls as well as for comparing noise sources in workrooms. this parameter can be determined by sound pressure or intensity based methods in real conditions of workrooms. this paper aims empirically to compare these in situ methods in relation to a typical industrial machine located in workroom in terms o...

in this work, a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (tpue) model based on polytetramethylene glycol, toluene diisocyanate and 1,4-butanediol was selected and synthesized. according to this model two types of polyurethane nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization and melt intercalation procedures. the organo-modified nanoclay was used in nanocomposites samples in 0.4 weight percent...
