With sustainability at the forefront of current polymerisation research, the typically earth-
abundant, inexpensive and low-toxicity main group metals are attractive candidates for …

The present review highlights advances in the copolymerization of carbon dioxide (CO2)
and epoxides (oxiranes) to produce polycarbonates. Specifically, focus has been given to …

The catalytic copolymerization of CO 2 with epoxides to give polycarbonates was discovered
nearly 50 years ago. The last 10 years have been particularly exciting for the development …

To achieve the unique advantages of silicone resin and the free-radical/cationic hybrid UV-
curing mechanism, a free-radical/cationic hybrid UV-curable silicone resin (MTQ-TQ-T) is …

Polymers are essential materials in our daily life. The synthesis of value-added polymers is
mainly performed from fossil fuel-derived monomers. However, the adoption of the circular …

The aim of the present review is to highlight the most recent achievements in different fields
of application of salen-based zinc and aluminum complexes. More specifically this article …

Abstract (R)‐Limonene, a renewable terpene, and its epoxidized derivatives, ie limonene
epoxides, have prompted growing attention over the last decade as building blocks for the …

Alcohol-initiated ring-opening alternating copolymerization (ROAP) of phthalic anhydride
(PA) and a variety of mono-, di-, and trisubstituted epoxides has been performed with a weak …

A recent study has been directed to the design of metal-free Lewis pair catalysts for ring-
opening alternating copolymerization (ROAP) reactions to enhance both activity and …

Recent progress in the design of metal-free Lewis pair catalysts indicates a bright future for
the synthesis of various polyesters with broad applications. In the present review, we attempt …
