A novel strategy is reported to produce low surface energy poly (pentadecafluorooctyl-5-
norbornene-2-carboxylate) brushes (PNCA-F15) on surfaces of variable metals and metallic …

We report the surface-initiated ring-opening metathesis polymerization (SI-ROMP) of 5-
(perfluoro-n-alkyl) norbornenes (NBF n) to grow partially fluorinated polymer films of tunable …

Surface-initiated ring-opening metathesis polymerization (SI-ROMP), based on the design of
hydrophobic and antifouling monomers, was employed for the synthesis of grafting-modified …

This manuscript describes the versatile fabrication and characterization of a novel composite
membrane that consists of a porous alumina support, a 100 nm thick nanoporous gold …

This is a review of papers published in the year 2009 that focus on the synthesis, reactivity,
or properties of compounds containing a carbon-transition metal double or triple bond.

Summary Ring Opening Metathesis Polymerization (ROMP) is a versatile chain‐growth
polymerization technique in which mono or polycyclic olefins undergo ring opening and thus …

The interaction of the second-generation Grubbs catalyst and dimethyl maleate is
investigated. It is shown that this interaction affords a new ruthenium-carbene complex …

Hypothesis In situ crosslinking is expected to increase the solvent stability of coatings
formed by surface-initiated ring opening metathesis polymerization (SI ROMP). Solvent …
