IntroductionClick to copy section linkSection link copied!All advances and large-scale applications of catalysts require accurate, reproducible and efficient methods to quantify reaction rates and kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. (1) Homogeneous cyclic monomer ring-opening polymerization (ROP) catalysis is a key technology to produce oxygenated polymers, which are viewed as leading, sustainable alternatives to current commodity hydrocarbon plastics, elastomers, and materials.
