We present a one-pot synthesis for well-defined nanostructured polymeric microparticles formed from block copolymers that could easily be adapted to commercial scale. We have utilized reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization to prepare block copolymers in a dispersion polymerization...

Model for the breakup of a tuft of fibers.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics

Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2006 Oct;74(4):041806. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.74.041806. Epub 2006 Oct 10.

A simple model for the forces acting on a single fiber as it is withdrawn from a tangled fiber assembly is proposed. Particular emphasis is placed on understanding the dynamics of the reptating fiber with respect to the entanglement...

Successful dispersion polymerization in supercritical CO2 using polyvinylalkylate hydrocarbon surfactants synthesized and anchored via RAFT.

Journal of the American Chemical Society

PMID: 18714998
J Am Chem Soc. 2008 Sep 17;130(37):12242-3. doi: 10.1021/ja8046156. Epub 2008 Aug 21.

New CO2-philic hydrocarbon molecules were synthesized by reversible addition fragmentation chain-transfer polymerization. These poly(vinyl alkylates) show the highest solubility in supercritical CO2 of any hydrocarbon reported to date. By utilizing the anchoring ability of the thiocarbonylthio end group, the...

Porous inverse vulcanised polymers for mercury capture.
