Polymerization with Redox Switchable Catalyst

Abstract

The precise polymerization is essential method to make polymer materials with high performance and functionality. Recently, the precise polymerization such as radical, cationic, anionic, and coordination polymerization, which enables control of molecular weight and stereoselectivity, has been much attractive. This mini-review focuses on (co)polymerization with redox switchable ring-opening polymerization catalyst and its (co)polymerization mechanism.
