Polycondensation

Abstract

Since the days of Carothers polycondensations and other step-growth polymerizations were described in the review articles and textbooks on the basis of linear monomers. Having reactive “a” and/or “b” groups, on the other hand, cyclic monomers were usually presented in combination with Ring-Opening Polymerizations (ROPs) which obey the kinetic scheme of a chain-growth polymerization.
