ELECTRON-DONOR components of commercial Ziegler-Natta polymerization catalysts dictate the structure of the catalyst's active site, according to a new study (J. Catal. 2008, 257, 81). The study ...
The discovery of catalysts that dictated polymer sterochemistry, which earned a Nobel prize for Karl Ziegler and Giulio Natta 50 years ago, initiated the modern age of controlled polymer synthesis.
