    About this ebook

    The Chemistry of Cationic Polymerization covers the fundamental aspects of organic chemistry that provide significant insights into the many facets of cationic polymerization processes and products. Each chapter deals with individual and groups of monomers. Considerable chapters examine the chemistry of oxygen compounds. Other chapters describe the techniques for cationic polymer analysis and detection. This text also considers sulfur compounds, particularly their polymerizations by radical and anionic mechanisms. The remaining chapters explore the polymerization and products of carbonium ions, related organic reactions and comparison with radical and anionic polymerizations, as well as the conspectus of kinetics and mechanism. This book is of great value to organic and polymer chemists.

      The Dawn of Life in a $5 Toaster Oven

      Jan 10, 2019

      God might just as well have begun with a toaster oven. A few years ago at a yard sale, Nicholas Hud spotted a good candidate: A vintage General Electric model, chrome-plated with wood-grain panels, nestled in an old yellowed box, practically unused.

      Were ‘Foldamers’ the Start of Life on Earth?

      Aug 30, 2017

      Researchers have developed a computational model that may explain how proteins, DNA, and RNA arose from simpler chemicals when life on Earth emerged around 4 billion years ago. The researchers say their model explains how certain molecules fold and b

      Metal Turns Vexatious Plastic Into A Sustainable Feedstock

      Dec 11, 2022

      Polyethylene is one of the most common types of plastic in the world. Easy to make, it's devilishly difficult to break down again, making re-use and recycling tricky. In Science, US chemists showed they've figured out a new way to return polyethylene
