Step-growth copolymerization between immobilized monomer and mobile monomer in metal-organic frameworks

Press release (in Japanese)

 

Abstract
The A‐A/B‐B step‐growth copolymerization between a monomer immobilized in the crystalline state and a monomer mobile in the solution state is demonstrated. One of the two monomers was immobilized as organic ligands of the metal‐organic framework (MOF) and polymerized with the mobile guest monomer, resulting in the formation of linear polymers. The polymerization behavior was completely different from…..
