초록 :
The use of polymer architectures and polymer nanomaterials is on a steady rise, and muchowed to reversible deactivation radical polymerisation, as it has established new levels of control and freedom to polymer design and synthesis. Tailor-made block copolymers orhighly branched macromolecules are thus increasingly used in the fabrication of advancedfunctional materials, spanning a rather large area for diverse applications, including energyand medicine.
In the first part of this talk I will focus on a highly branched macromolecule, a so-calledmolecular polymer bottlebrush (MPB), to highlight its potential use in nanomedicine,self-assembly and 3D printing. In the second part of the talk, I will highlight the use of heterogenous photocatalysts in light-driven polymerisation, such as RAFT polymerisation. In the third part of the talk, I will touch on recent advances in using our materials asstructure-directing agents to yield electrode materials for battery research.
