Cobalt‐Mediated Radical Polymerization
Authors: Debuigne Antoine , Jérôme Robert , Jérôme Christine , Detrembleur Christophe 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
Controlled radical polymerization driven by cobalt complexes has emerged over the past decades as a powerful tool for the design of precision polymers. This so‐called Cobalt‐Mediated Radical Polymerization (CMRP) relies on the temporary deactivation of the radical chains by a cobalt complex, which strongly decreases the probability of bimolecular termination reactions. CMRP imparts control to industrially important monomers and allows formation of polymers with predictable molecular weights and well‐defined architectures. This book chapter describes general mechanistic principles, key parameters and synthetic progress of CMRP as well as remaining challenges.

Miniemulsion Polymerization
Authors: Landfester Katharina , Crespy Daniel 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
The miniemulsion technique allows the formation of functionalized polymers via different types of polymerization, the encapsulation of liquid and solid components, and/or the modification of polymers in stable nanodroplets. In this chapter, we present the details of various polymer syntheses within miniemulsion droplets, the possibilities of encapsulating various components (as reported elsewhere) are discussed, and we outline the current trends in this field of research.

Emulsion Polymerization
Authors: Hernandez Hugo F. , Tauer Klaus 
Published: February 2013

AbstractEmulsion polymerization is a centennial technology used for the synthesis of high molecular weight polymers at relatively fast polymerization rates, which yields low‐viscosity latexes with many useful applications in daily life. Emulsion polymerization is the result of complex interactions between many physical and chemical events taking place simultaneously although at quite different scales. In this chapter, the kinetics of emulsion polymerization is described considering the perspective of the molecules involved in the process, in an attempt to provide a clear, concise and yet comprehensive picture of emulsion polymerization. Molecular modeling techniques are used to gain a deeper insight into the polymerization mechanism.
