Control over macromolecular architecture and resulting material
properties has been a central goal of polymer chemistry. There has
been much interest in developing new synthetic routes to prepare
smart materials with novel compositions and topologies for various
applications. The considerable progress in the metal mediated
macromolecular engineering over the past decade has had a major
impact on the development of well-defined macromolecular
architectures and the synthesis of smart materials. Particularly,
remarkable strong developments have been observed for the synthesis
of smart materials via four metal mediated macromolecular
engineering techniques; Anionic, ROMP, ATRP and Click Chemistry.
These materials have found uses in advanced microelectronics,
technical and biomedical applications as well as in chemical
sensors applications.
This book is comprised of 27 chapters written by leading
scientists from NATO and Partner Countries who have greatly
contributed in the area of Anionic, ROMP, ATRP and Click Chemistry.
It highlights the fundamental aspects and recent developments of
these four powerful techniques and evaluate their potential in the
syntheses of smart materials from complex structures (grafts,
brushes, dendrimers, etc.) to nanostructures (self-assembly,
nano-size, etc) for a wide range of applications.
The book reports on the synthesis of a wide range of
well-defined complex polymeric systems such as thermoresponsive
smart polymers, star copolymers, biocompatible polymers, amphipilic
smart nano structured, conducting polymers, self assembled
polymers, and hyperbranced polymers.
