Description
Highly specialised, customisable polymeric materials are an important area of research. The work herein develops a platform for utilising photochemical cycloadditions for the synthesis of polymer microspheres. A number of systems were developed based on the nitrile-imine mediated tetrazole-ene cycloaddition (NITEC) reaction and o-methylbenzaldehyde (oMBA)-based photo-enol chemistry, providing access to polymer particles with novel properties and functionality. Highlighting the suitability of these reactions in polymer particle synthesis – with advantages over common thermal and radical based methods – opens the door for further development in the synthesis of novel polymer particles using step-growth reactions.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
