Organocatalytic C–H fluoroalkylation of commodity polymers
Abstract: Post-polymerization modification of commodity plastics diversifies their material properties and expands their potential applications. The thermal and chemical stability of polymers that contain aromatic rings, which represent a high-volume class of materials, makes it challenging to add functionality while retaining the molar mass (Mn) and molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the original polymer. Herein,…
