New synthetic techniques allow chemists to modify polymer
microstructures more precisely than ever, making it possible to
design materials that meet increasingly demanding performance
requirements. Written and edited by experts in the field,
Stereoselective Polymerization with Single-Site Catalysts reviews
how the relative stereochemistry of polymer chains affects polymer
properties and presents the latest strategies for developing tactic
polymers using single-site catalysis.
?
This unified volume explains the mechanistic basics of tactic
polymerizations, beginning with an extensive survey of the most
important classes of metallocene and post-metallocene catalysts
used to make polypropylenes.? It also focuses on tactic stereoblock
and ethylene/propylene copolymers and catalyst active site models,
followed by chapters discussing the structure of more
stereochemically complex polymers and polymerizations that proceed
via non-vinyl-addition mechanisms.? Individual chapters thoroughly
describe tactic polymerizations of "α"-olefins, styrene, dienes,
acetylenes, lactides, epoxides, acrylates, and cyclic monomers, as
well as cyclopolymerizations and ditactic structures, olefin/CO
polymers, and metathesis polyalkenamers.
An ideal reference and supplementary text, Stereoselective
Polymerization with Single-Site Catalysts enables both new and
experienced chemists to better understand tactic polymers and
select appropriate catalyst systems for their preparation.
