FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS
RAFT polymerization is a living, radical polymerization process that makes it possible to control the polymer structure and composition. It also has the advantage of delivering a low molecular weight distribution. RAFT Agents are trithiocarbonate-based products that act as chain transfer agents in RAFT polymerizations. KISCO, through our partner, Boron Molecular, is developing and supplying a range of RAFT agents suitable for large scale production.
