  • Title: Ultra-fast microwave enhanced reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization: monomers to polymers in minutes.
    Author: Brown SL, Rayner CM, Graham S, Cooper A, Rannard S, Perrier S.
    Journal: Chem Commun (Camb); 2007 Jun 07; (21):2145-7. PubMed ID: 17520117.
    Abstract:
    Microwave mediated RAFT polymerization leads to ultra-fast polymerizations, whilst keeping excellent control over molecular weights and molecular weight distributions; this is the first example of such a dramatic effect of microwaves on living radical polymerization kinetics, and it shows the potential for chemists to produce very well controlled polymers in a matter of minutes.
