Modeling n‐Butyl Acrylate Polymerization using Complementary Modeling Techniques

Macromolecular Reaction Engineering, EarlyView.
Two different simulation methods are used for the radical polymerization of nBA: deterministic in Predici and stochastic with mcPolymer. It has been successfully implemented across a wide temperature range. It turns out that the partially different implementation of chain‐length‐dependent termination and β‐scission are important for obtaining ...

Enhanced Degradation of Vinyl Copolymers Based on Lipoic Acid

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1345-1351, 15 March 2025.
ABSTRACT The introduction of degradable units into the backbone of commodity vinyl polymers represents a major opportunity to address the societal challenge of plastic waste and polymer recycling. Previously, we reported the facile copolymerization of α‐lipoic acid derivatives containing 1,2‐dithiolane rings with vinyl monomers leading to the ...
