4-CYANO-4-(THIOBENZOYLTHIO)PENTANOIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Uses

A sulfur-based, chain-transfer agent providing a high degree of control for living radical polymerizations utilizing the RAFT (reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer polymerization) technique.

Uses

Reversible Addition Fragmentation Chain Transfer (RAFT) Polymerization

Uses

4-Cyano-4-(phenylcarbonothioylthio)pentanoic acid is a RAFT agent for controlled radical polymerization; especially suited for the polymerization of methacrylate and methacrylamide monomers. Chain Transfer Agent (CTA).
