Abstract:
A polymerization process, comprising:polymerizing one or more radically (co)polymerizable monomers in the presence of a system comprising; an initiator comprising one or more radically transferable atom(s) or group(s), and a catalyst system comprising: a transition metal; one or more counterions; a ligand attached to a solid support, wherein the ligand is a N-, O-, P-, or S-containing ligand which can coordinate in a &sgr;-bond to the transition metal or a carbon-containing ligand which can coordinate in a &pgr;-bond to the transition metal; and a soluble ligand, wherein the soluble ligand is a N-, O-, P-, or S-containing ligand which can coordinate in a &sgr;-bond or a carbon-containing ligand which can coordinate in a &pgr;-bond to the transition metal to form a soluble transition metal complex.
