Kinetics of Radical Polymerization: The Foundation for Novel Materials and Processes

8.-9. April 2010, Göttingen

Scope
The focus of the meeting will be on the kinetics and mechanism of radical polymerization, which constitutes a basic foundation for the design of new processes and materials. A fundamental physicochemical understanding of polymerization kinetics, both in conventional and controlled processes, is vital for effectively tailoring the microstructure of macromolecules. This is so, because the complex interplay of the multitude of individual reactions that occur in radical polymerization determines the microstructure of the polymeric product, which in turn governs its material properties.
