Catalysis in Precision Polymerization

This comprehensive book aims to describe the entire field of catalysis in polymerisation systematically, covering fundamental chemistry, practical technology and the historical background of catalysis. It also provides concepts and perspectives on this area.
This book provides a comprehensive survey of the entire field of catalysis in polymer synthesis covering the majority of essential aspects from basic organic, organometallic and bio-chemistry to industrial production. Particular emphasis is placed on "precision polymerization," where the catalyst plays a key role in the fabrication of innovative polymers. Precision polymerization enables the production of polymers with precisely controlled structures, molecular weight, distribution and stereochemistry, free from defects.
