Polymerization Control via Defined Geometries

Subject Area
Preparatory and Physical Chemistry of Polymers
Term
from 2016 to 2019
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 259079535
The main goal of the project is the establishment of thermally- and light-induced precession polymerization reactions inside the channels of three-dimensional templates based on surface-anchored metal organic frameworks (SURMOFs) with exactly defined geometry. Inside one channel one single polymer chain can grow in isolation to other chains. As terminating reactions will be avoided by the restriction of the available space, polymers with defined length and minimal dispersity are obtained.
