Smart and Efficient Synthesis of Cyclic Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)s by Ring Expansion RAFT (RE-RAFT) Polymerization and Analysis of Their Unique Temperature-Responsive Properties [PDF]
Cyclic polymers have many interesting properties compared to their linear analogs, but there are very few examples of their synthesis. This is because most cyclic polymers have been synthesized by stepwise processes, including synthesizing homo- or ...

Intermediate Radical Termination Theory in Elucidation of RAFT Kinetics and Comparison to Experimental Data [PDF]
In current work a comprehensive mechanism based on intermediate radical termination theory is assumed for RAFT polymerization of styrene over cumyl dithiobenzoate as RAFT agent. Rate constants for addition (ka) and fragmentation reactions (kf) are set to

DNA–Polymer Conjugates by Photoinduced RAFT Polymerization [PDF]
Conventional grafting-to approaches to DNA-polymer conjugates are often limited by low reaction yields due to the sterically hindered coupling of a presynthesized polymer to DNA. The grafting-from strategy, in contrast, allows one to directly graft polymers from an initiator that is covalently attached to DNA.
