Incredible progress has been made in synthetic polymer chemistry to control the polymer chain length, structure and architecture via controlled living polymerization reactions as well as functionalization chemistries. The development in this field is still very intense and dynamic, leading to an ever-increasing molecular complexity.
However, this increasing complexity on the molecular level demands for highly advanced specialists because only they possess the skillset to synthesize such chemical structures. This clearly limits or slows down the advancement to new scientific areas. Hence, we have addressed this challenge by developing over the years simple synthetic routes, while maintaining a molecular complexity, thereby providing the synthetic tools for many scientists to prepare highly functional polymer materials with unprecedented molecular precision.
Thinking outside the box in polymer synthesis and processing can lead to new and promising approaches that enable precision materials ranging from the area of smart materials to energy storage. Synthetic routes, possibilities, remaining challenges and opportunities will be discussed.
