Description
Summary:The fundamentals of controlled radical polymerization are presented in this review. The paper focuses on reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The mechanism and specifics of this type of polymerization are discussed, as are the possibilities of synthesizing complex macro-molecular structures. The synthesis and properties of RAFT agents, of the general structure Z-C(=S)-S-R, are presented. U ovom radu predstavljeni su osnovi kontrolisane radikalne polimerizacije. Najveca paznja posvecena je radikalnoj polimerizaciji sa ravnoteznim adiciono-fragmentacionim prenosom aktivnosti (RAFT). Navedeni su mehanizam i osobenosti ove vrste polimerizacije, kao i mogucnosti za sintezu slozenih makromolekulskih struktura. Objasnjene su sinteza i svojstva RAFT agenasa, opste strukture Z-C(=S)-S-R.
