Polymerisation Mechanisms as the Missing Link in Rational Design of Imprinted Polymer Networks

CHCarmelo Herdes

Key Points

  • This research seeks to clarify the role of polymerisation mechanisms in the creation of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs).
  • Focused on understanding the mechanisms of polymerisation involved in MIP formation.
  • Utilized both theoretical and experimental approaches to analyze the interactions between templates and polymer networks.
  • Examined pre-polymerisation complexation as a crucial step in MIP development.
  • Demonstrated that understanding polymerisation mechanisms significantly enhances MIP design efficiency.
  • Found that optimized polymerisation pathways lead to better selective recognition capabilities in MIPs.

Abstract

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are synthetic polymer networks formed around template molecules to create selective molecular recognition sites. While decades of research have advanced our understanding of pre-polymerisation complexation and...
