    Chapter 1 Reversible Deactivation Radical Polymerization: State-of-the-Art in 2017 Sivaprakash Shanmugam and Krzysztof Matyjaszewski* Center for Macromolecular Engineering, Department of Chemistry, Carnegie Mellon University, 4400 Fifth Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213, United States *E-mail: [email protected]. This chapter highlights the current advancements in reversible-deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) with a specifc focus on atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). The chapter begins with highlighting the termination pathways for acrylates radicals that were recently explored via RDRP techniques. This led to a better understanding of the catalytic radical termination (CRT) in ATRP for acrylate radicals. The designed new ligands for ATRP also enabled the suppression of CRT and increased chain end functionality. In addition, further mechanistic understandings of SARA-ATRP with Cu0 activation and comproportionation were studied using model reactions with different ligands and alkyl halide initiators. Another focus of RDRP in recent years has been on systems that are regulated by external stimuli such as light, Downloaded via CARNEGIE MELLON UNIV on August 17, 2020 at 15:07:44 (UTC). electricity, mechanical forces and chemical redox reactions.

Herein, we report a photocontrolled, additive-free iniferter polymerization that operates in completely open vials utilizing the “polymerizing through oxygen” mechanism. Trithiocarbonates are directly activated with high intensity 450 nm light to produce narrowly dispersed (Mw/Mn = 1.1–1.6) polyacrylates and poly- acrylamides.

  • Adhesion to Plastic
    Adhesion to Plastic Marcus Hutchins Scientist I TS&D Industrial Coatings-Radcure Cytec Smyrna, GA USA Abstract A plastic can be described as a mixture of polymer or polymers, plasticizers, fillers, pigments, and additives which under temperature and pressure can be molded into various items1. Plastic materials have become a staple of our everyday life in applications ranging from food packaging to home construction. In automotive applications alone, over four billion pounds2 of plastic were used in cars and light trucks and that figure is expected to grow 30 percent by 2011. The demand for plastic is growing at a rate faster than metal because of advantages such as reduced weight, reduced material cost, corrosion resistance and increased durability over metal. As the demand for plastic increases, the need to effectively and efficiently coat plastic parts will also increase. For most plastics, that will mean starting with a good primer coating. This paper will present three new ultraviolet (UV) curable resins that may be used to formulate primers for a variety of plastic substrates. ©RadTech e|5 2006 Technical Proceedings Introduction Once a plastic part is formed, a coating is usually applied for decorative or protective purposes. Typically, that starts with a primer coating. There are many factors that positively affect the adhesion of the primer to the substrate, and several will be discussed here. One of the more important properties in achieving adhesion is the ability of the coating to wet the substrate3. In order for wetting to occur, the surface tension of the coating must be less than the surface energy of the substrate.
