Fundamental understanding of microwave assisted ring-opening polymerisation and co-polymerisation

The work presented in the thesis attempted to gain in-depth understanding of the effect that the microwave energy has on various facets of the ring-opening polymerisation of cyclic esters with a view to synthesising novel bio-degradable homopolymers, branched structures and copolymers. Chapter 1 in...
