Reversible-deactivation polymerization, often referred to as controlled/living polymerization, is a type of polymerization process that enables the synthesis of polymers with well-defined molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions. This technique allows for a high degree of control over the polymerization process, enabling the production of polymers with specific structural features and functionalities. The key characteristic of reversible-deactivation polymerization is the presence of reversible reactions that can temporarily deactivate the active sites of the polymerization process.
