WE have found a number of examples of dye-induced photopolymerization of styrene, in which excited dye molecules directly interact with vinyl monomers, thus promoting the polymerization reaction.

Researchers at the UAB have developed a new chemical reaction to form solid polymeric ... which limits their temporal and spatial precision. For example, some photoactivated reagents may diffuse ...

Specifically, our group is focusing on developing new materials and photopolymerization mechanisms for a variety of applications including: Sequence-Controlled Polymerization of "Click" Nucleic Acids ...
