Anionic Living Polymerization
Anionic living polymerization is a controlled polymerization method in which chain growth proceeds through an anionic active center with limited chain termination. The process can enable precise control of molecular weight, block sequence, and polymer architecture, which is valuable when producing specialty elastomers, block copolymers, and high-performance materials.
