Methacrylate monomers have been widely used in medical and dental applications such as bone cements, dental fillings, bioadhesives, and hydrogels. One major problem of these monomers resides in their low rates of polymerization leading to leaching problems that cause irritation of the surrounding ti
The anionic polymerization of methacrylate monomers has been investigated with lithium dialkylamides as initiators in THF and toluene, respectively. Theoretical arguments and previous studies of mixed aggregates of lithiated organic compounds support the complexity of these systems. Lithium diisopro
