RAFT Macromolecular Engineering of Green Bio-based Coatings from Butyrolactone Biorenewable Monomers Ghent University
Current environmental constraints along with the depletion of fossil fuels necessitates the use of greener materials in society. Biobased monomers are the most sustainable, renewable, abundant and ubiquitous biomass available in nature, as they are present in plants. The reactivity of biobased monomers in free radical polymerizations will be assessed via pulsed laser polymerization in conjunction with size exclusion chromatography (PLP-SEC) ...
