    Abstract Coordinative chain transfer polymerization, CCTP, is a degenerative chain transfer polymerization process that has a wide range of applications. It allows a highly controlled synthesis of polyolefins, stereoregular polydienes, and stereoregular polystyrene, including (stereo)block as well as statistical copolymers thereof. It also shows a green character by allowing catalyst economy during the synthesis of such polymers. CCTP notably allows the end functionalization of both the commodity and stereoregular specialty polymers aforementionned, control of the composition of statistical copolymers without adjusting the feed, and quantitative formation of 1-alkenes from ethene. A one-pot one-step synthesis of the original multiblock microstructures and architectures by chain shuttling polymerization (CSP) is also an asset of CCTP. This methodology takes advantage of the simultaneous presence of two catalysts of different selectivity toward comonomers that produce blocks of different composition/microstructure, while still allowing the chain transfer. This affords the production of highly performant functional polymers, such as thermoplastic elastomers and adhesives, among others. This approach has been extended to cyclic esters' and ethers' ring-opening polymerization, providing new types of multiblock microstructure. The present Review provides the state of the art in the field with a focus on the last 10 years.

    Abstract Organocatalysis has provided new tools for making block copolymers, in particular active species able to polymerize monomers of different chemical nature such as cyclic esters, cyclic carbonates and epoxides. We report herein the first example of an organocatalytic active species able to polymerize sequentially a cyclic ester, ε-decalactone, and a vinyl monomer, methyl methacrylate. The resulting block copolymer shows the properties of thermoplastic elastomers.

    Abstract Thermal field-flow fractionation (ThFFF) was designed to investigate the retention behavior of a series of dendritic polyethylenes synthesized using a chain walking catalyst (cwPE) with variations in the branching architecture. The retention behavior of these macromolecules correlates with their branching. Based on differences in the Soret coefficient, a new model has been developed for the application of ThFFF as an alternative to the branching calculation approach based on light scattering or viscosity for the branching analysis of novel short-chain branched PEs.

    Abstract Modifying material properties in simple macromolecules such as polyethylene (PE) is achieved by different connection modes of ethylene monomers resulting in a plurality of possible topologies-from highly linear to dendritic species. However, the challenge still lies within the experimental identification of the topology and conformation of the isolated macromolecules because of their low solubility, which demands methods with specific solvents and high operating temperatures. Additionally, a separation technique has to be coupled to different detection methods to meet the specific demands of the respective characterization goal. In this work, we report a quadruple-detector high temperature size exclusion chromatography (HT-SEC) system which contains online multiangle laser light scattering, dynamic light scattering, differential viscometry, and differential refractometry detectors. Quadruple-detector HT-SEC was successfully applied to explore the full range of physical parameters of various PE samples with different branching topologies ranging from highly linear macromolecules, polymers with moderate level of branching, to highly branched PEs with hyperbranched structure. This method is a useful tool not only to investigate molecular weight, mass distribution, and size but also to enable access to important factors which describe the conformation in dilute solution and branching density.

    Abstract Recently developed chain walking (CW) catalysis is an elegant approach to produce materials with controllable structure and properties. However, there is still a lack in understanding of how the reaction mechanism influences the macromolecular structures. In this study, a series of dendritic polyethylenes (PE) synthesized by Pd-α-diimine-complex through CW catalysis (CWPE) is investigated by means of theory and experiment. Thereby, the exceptional ability of in situ tailoring polymer structure by varying synthesis parameters was exploited to tune the branching architecture, which allowed us to establish a precise relationship between synthesis, structure, and solution properties. The systematically produced polymers were characterized by state-of-the-art multidetector separation and neutron scattering experiments as well as atomic force microscopy to access molecular properties of CWPE. On a global scale, the CWPE appear in a worm-like conformation independently on the synthesis conditions. However, severe differences in their contraction factors suggested that CWPE differ substantially in topology. These observations were verified by NMR studies that showed that CWPE possess a constant total number of branches but varying branching distribution. Small angle neutron scattering experiments gave access to structural characteristics from global to segmental scale and revealed the unique heterogeneity of CWPE, which is predominantly based on differences in their dendritic side chains. The experimental data were compared to theoretical CW structures modeled with different reaction-to-walking probabilities. Simple theoretical arguments predict a crossover from dendritic to linear topologies yielding a structural range from purely linear to dendritic chain growth. Yet, comparison of theoretical and empirical scattering curves gave the first evidence that a transition state to worm-like topologies is actually experimentally accessible. This crossover regime is characterized by linear global features and dendritic local substructures contrary to randomly hyperbranched systems. Instead, the obtained CWPE systems have characteristics of disordered dendritic bottle brushes and can be adjusted by the walking rate/reaction probability of the catalyst.
