The Fast and the Curious: High-Throughput Experimentation in Synthetic Polymer Chemistry
-
Hoogenboom, Richard; Schubert, Ulrich S.
- Abstract:
- The application of
automated synthetic parallel methods
in polymer chemistry is described.
A brief overview of all
different polymerization techniques
that have been used is provided.
Furthermore, the equipment
and methodologies that were used
in our approach for automated parallel
polymerization reactions are
discussed followed by detailed insight
into recent developments on
automated cationic ring-opening
polymerization, atom transfer radical
polymerization, and emulsion
polymerizations.
