Major Developments in the 1950 -60's Living Polymerization (Anionic) • Mw/Mn 1 • Blocks, telechelics and stars available (Controlled molecular architecture) • Statistical Stereochemical Control • Statistical Compositions and Sequences • Severe functional group restrictions
Ziegler-Natta (Metal-Coordinated) Polymerization • • Stereochemical Control Polydisperse products Statistical Compositions and Sequences Limited set of useful monomers, i. e. olefins • SINGLE SITE CATALYSTS
Additional Developments in the 1980's • "Immortal" Polymerization (Cationic) – – – Mw/Mn 1. 05 Blocks, telechelics, stars (Controlled molecular architecture) Statistical Compositions and Sequences Severe functional group restrictions

Step-Growth or Condensation Polymerizations Molecular Weight predicted by Carothers Equation: A-A + B-B -[A-B-]x + x C [A-A] = [B-B] = No # of functional groups remaining at anytime = N Extent of reaction = p No - N p = _____ or N = No (1 - p) No Degree of Polymerization, D. P. = No / N = 1 / (1 - p)
Problems in Achieving High D. P. 1. Non-equivalence of functional groups a. Monomer impurities 1. Inert impurities (adjust stoichiometry) 2. Monofunctional units terminate chain b.
