TECHNICAL ABSTRACTSynthesis and characterization of new materials with precisely controlled macromolecular dimensions, functionalities and composition as well as with well-defined topologies is the ultimate goal of contemporary polymer science. For many years control of molecular architecture and functionalities in radical polymerization was very difficult. However, recently controlled/living polymerizations have been extended to radical systems which are not only commercially the most important but also have the largest potential due to availability of polymerizable monomers, facile copolymerization and undemanding reaction conditions. Therefore, controlled/living radical polymerization of vinyl monomers expands and enhances fundamental knowledge. This proposal requests support for 3 US assistant professors, 3 postdoctoral fellows and 3 graduate students to participate in the Symposium on "Controlled/Living Radical Polymerization" at the National Meeting of the American Chemical Society in Denver, CO, August 28-31, 2011. The Symposium will cover recent advances in controlled/living systems. Three general approaches to controlled radical polymerization will be highlighted. This includes use of nitroxides and other organic stable radicals, application of metal catalyzed polymerization such as atom transfer radical polymerization, and techniques employing chain transfer and addition-fragmentation chemistry, including inifers. The lectures will cover mechanisms, synthesis and characterization of materials with novel molecular architectures, functionalitiesand composition. The symposium will include one tutorial and 7 regular sessions with approximately eighty lectures and 6 poster sessions. The meeting will allow to exchange and disseminate information among researchers from various countries and many US academic (including graduate students and postdoctoral fellows), governmental and industrial laboratories.NON-TECHNICAL ABSTRACTControlled radical polymerization is among the most rapidly developing areas of polymer and materials science. It impacts many advanced technologies enabling unprecedented advances in biomedical materials, optoelectronics, environmentally related areas and other areas such as coatings, lubricants, adhesives, additives, surfactants, dispersants and health and beauty products. Thus, knowledge generated during the 2011 Denver Symposium on "Controlled/Living Radical Polymerization" will benefit many participants, including undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, their advisors as well researchers from governmental and industrial laboratories. As in the case of the previous 2008 ACS Symposium on "Controlled/Living Radical Polymerization" held in Philadelphia, the PI plans to publish proceedings with the major lectures presented at the meeting.

具有精确控制的大分子尺寸，功能和组成以及定义明确的拓扑结构的新材料的技术摘要合成和表征是当代聚合物科学的最终目标。多年来，控制分子结构和激进聚合中的功能非常困难。但是，最近受控/生活聚合的聚合已扩展到自由基系统，这不仅在商业上是最重要的，而且由于可用性可用性单体，易于共聚和不符合反应条件而具有最大的潜力。因此，乙烯基单体的受控/生活自由基聚合扩展并增强了基本知识。该提案要求在2011年8月28日至31日在美国丹佛市美国化学学会的全国会议上，为3名美国助理教授，3名博士后研究员和3名研究生参加了“受控/生活激进聚合”研讨会。旨在涵盖受控/生活系统的最新进展。将突出显示三种控制自由基聚合的一般方法。这包括使用氮氧化物和其他有机稳定的自由基，应用金属催化的聚合，例如原子转移自由基聚合，以及采用链条转移和添加碎片化学的技术，包括侵害剂。讲座将涵盖具有新型分子体系结构，功能性和组成的材料的机制，合成和表征。研讨会将包括一个教程和7个常规会议，约有80个讲座和6个海报会议。这次会议将允许来自各个国家的研究人员以及许多美国学者（包括研究生和博士后研究员），政府和工业实验室之间的信息进行交换和传播。没有技术抽象对照的根本性聚合是聚合物和材料科学的最快发展领域。它影响了许多先进的技术，从而实现了生物医学材料，光电，环境相关的领域以及其他领域的前所未有的进步，例如涂料，润滑剂，粘合剂，添加剂，添加剂，表面活性剂，分散剂，外观和健康和美容产品。因此，在2011年丹佛“受控/生活激进聚合”研讨会期间产生的知识将使许多参与者受益，包括本科生和研究生，博士后研究员，他们的顾问以及政府和工业实验室的研究人员。就像前2008年ACS关于在费城举行的“受控/生活激进聚合”研讨会上一样，PI计划在会议上发表的主要讲座发布诉讼程序。
