Abstract

It's alive! A significant step forward in the controlled radical polymerization of ethylene through the reversible addition–fragmentation chain‐transfer process was reported recently by Monteil and co‐workers. Control over molecular weight, dispersity of the molecular weight distribution, and polymer end groups were investigated. DMC=Dimethyl carbonate.
