Catalytic Polymerization & Process Group
Introduction

Catalytic Polymerization and Process Research Group (CPPG) was established in March 2015. With "catalytic resolution polymerization" as a strategy, the CPPG focuses on the catalytic polymerization for the novel and functional materials synthesis and applications, utilizing organo and transition-metal catalyzed coordinated polymerization. In terms of polyolefin materials, highly efficient and selective catalytic polymerization methods and technologies have been developed for C4-C5 olefin polymerization, which are the key technologies for the syntheses of ultra-high molecular weight branched polyolefin rubber and other materials. In terms of chiral functional materials, the concept of "asymmetric separation and aggregation" was first proposed in the world. The research group currently has a staff of 30 peoples including 2 professors, 3 associate professors, 5 intermediate researchers, 11 research assistant and several master and doctoral students, published 34 papers; applied for more than 60 invention patents, 6 international patents; authorized 13 Chinese invention patents.
