Synthesis of well-defined graft co-polymers via coupled living anionic and living ring-opening metathesis polymerisation (2004)
Journal Article
Khosravi, E., Hutchings, L., & Kujawa-Welten, M. (2004). Synthesis of well-defined graft co-polymers via coupled living anionic and living ring-opening metathesis polymerisation. Designed Monomers and Polymers, 7(6), 619-632

The synthesis of polystyrene (PS) macromonomers functionalised with a norbornene (Nbe) unit and their living ring-opening metathesis polymerisation (ROMP) to produce comb graft copolymers is described. Macromonomers comprising of one PS chain per Nbe... Read More about Synthesis of well-defined graft co-polymers via coupled living anionic and living ring-opening metathesis polymerisation.

Synthesis of block copolymers by changing living anionic polymerization into living ring opening metathesis polymerization (2004)
Journal Article
Castle, T., Hutchings, L., & Khosravi, E. (2004). Synthesis of block copolymers by changing living anionic polymerization into living ring opening metathesis polymerization. Macromolecules, 37(6), 2035-2040. https://doi.org/10.1021/ma030418s

A series of AB diblock copolymers have been synthesized by transformation of living anionic polymerization into ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). Ethylene oxide was polymerized anionically using diphenylmethylpotassium as the initiator a...
