Reversible Deactivation Radical Polymerisation is a beautiful name from the viewpoint of pedantic accuracy, but it does not exactly roll off the tongue. When these reactions were first discovered in the 1980s and 90s, they were given the more evocative name of ‘Living Radical Polymerisation’. T...
Reversible deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP), formerly known as living radical polymerization (LRP), is the general name for a family of polymerization techniques. The techniques have in common that the propagating species is a free radical and that an equilibrium exists between active (free...

Reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer polymerization (RAFT) is another reversible-deactivation radical polymerization technique, similar to ATRP, but with more control over the polymerization, such as a predefined and narrow range of molecular weights. It was discovered in the year 1998 at the...
In addition, the development of reversible- deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP),1 which is also called controlled/living radical polymerization, has opened the door for the precise synthesis of 'uniform' polymers with controlled molecular weights and terminal groups and the precise connection of ...
The invention of reversible-deactivation radical polymerisation using reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) agents has revolutionised radical polymerisation. It has allowed the production of polymers with low dispersity, pre-specified size, and complex well-defined architecture [1], [2],...
reversible deactivation radical polymerizationsustainabilityThe recent focus of media and governments on renewability, green chemistry, and circular economy has led to a surge in the synthesis of renewable monomers and polymers. In this review, focussing on renewable monomers for reversible deactivation ...
