This lecture covers the fundamentals of controlled radical polymerization, focusing on techniques like ATRP and ARGET ATRP. It explains the role of chain transfer agents, initiator concentrations, and molecular weight calculations in polymer synthesis. The session also delves into the influence of transfer agents on polymer molecular weight and the concentrations required for specific polymer properties.
