Acid-enhanced RAFT depolymerization of polymethacrylates
Zuzanna Kantor, Maria-Nefeli Antonopoulou, Athénaïs Pascal-Touraine, Asja A. Kroeger, Nghia P. Truong, Glen R. Jones, Michelle L. Coote, Athina AnastasakiDepolymerization of RAFT-synthesized polymers in the presence of acid increases reaction rates up to 7.6-fold and increases monomer yield by preserving end groups and lowering depropagation barriers.
