Title:
RING OPENING POLYMERIZATION OF CYCLIC AMIDES USING N-HETEROCYCLIC CARBENE CATALYSTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006053071
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
N-heterocyclic carbenes are effective catalysts for the ring opening polymerization of cyclic amides. The catalysts provide rapid polymerization, high monomer conversion, high molecular weight, and a mechanically sound material.
